Internal webs - also known as Intranets - are only logically "internal" to an organization. Physically they can span the globe, as long as access is limited to a defined community of interest. This means that no matter how large or small your business is, an Intranet is a desirable means of communication between employees and departments and a cost-effective asset to your business.

An Intranet can be anything that you want it to be. It can simply contain a list of business polices and a picture of the employee-of-the-month. Or it can be an all-inclusive, high-tech wonder that transforms an otherwise overwhelmed organization into the well-oiled machine you always hoped it would be. Consider some of the possible features of an Intranet and the impact it could have on your business.

• Controlled access to business information
  
• Shared access to business documentation and records
  
• Access to client, supplier and employee information
  
• Events calendar and task scheduler
  
• Employee message board
  
• Intranet search engine

An Intranet allows you to move your existing business processes into a controlled web-based environment allowing employees to readily access the information they need. Uniform and standard procedures streamline your business and help to avoid unnecessary costs. Consider just some of the options available and the benefits they can offer.

Web Applications

Unlock and share your stand-alone data. By moving your databases online within a secure Intranet, your employees can access and share information between departments. Employees have access to up-to-date information on clients, suppliers and other business information on hand when they need it, allowing them to better utilise their time and channel their energies into their day-to-day tasks.

PDF Documents

Convert and standardise your business documentation. Using Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF), your documents can be standardised and placed online for use by employees in their tasks. With Adobe's PDF security features, you can limit access to certain features of the document or password-protect sensitive data. Distribute your documents to your customers and suppliers by email using this widely recognised document format or simply use it distribute invoices, billing notices and the like.

Multimedia

Just got back from that all important business trip? You took photos and video, you recorded your client's concerns and requirements. Your next presentation is ready to be delivered? Or you need to access previous presentations to garner ideas for a current project? Need to now share any or all of that information with your colleagues? Multimedia is your answer. By using the web as the delivery tool, multimedia can be presented to your clients, suppliers and colleagues no matter where they may be located in the world. This can be achieved by either streaming media or downloading and playing on your local PC.

As you can readily see, an Intranet can be a great asset to your business and business communications. Please contact us for additional information and pricing on our Intranet Development services or other online solutions we provide.
