OK, those are some things you can do with an Intranet - but what exactly is it? An intranet is an internal web site. A web site for your employees, or for your department or for your project team. On the web pages you post information as text, in documents, as links to other resources. This is information that is focused, easy to find -all in one central location.

What are the benefits of an Intranet for your organization?

What are some of the uses for an Intranet?

"How much time do your employees spend answering routinely asked questions ? Want to cut down the time ? Put the information on an Intranet. Don't just put it out there, refer all your callers to your Intranet. For ex. before a help line answers the phone play a short recorded message saying "For routine questions check our pages on the Intranet."

"Do your employees spend time chasing paper? Trying to hunt down paper forms, reports, documents, microfilm? Consider converting these documents to electronic formats using scanners, OCR software or other means. Provide a search interface to these documents using your Intranet. Once users know how easily accessible these documents are ..., they will prefer the faster solution. Result? You save time." *

An Intranet offers a powerful tool for communication and collaboration, presenting data and information, and the analysis that creates knowledge, all in one easily accessible place.
