Intranet Portals

“Companies that support extensive collaboration tend to outperform their peers, achieving greater gains in revenue growth, operating margins, productivity and customer satisfaction.”
- Using collaboration to enable the innovators in your organization, IBM Study, November 2006.

Connect people, processes, and information

Regardless of industry or organizational structure, nearly every business can benefit from a thoughtfully implemented portal strategy. Intranet portals bring people together, facilitate the growth and communication of ideas, and allow employees to work and respond more quickly and with greater accuracy of information.

More and more, employees are working in teams to complete their day-to-day responsibilities; necessitating better ways to communicate and collaborate across teams and across the organization. Intranet portals connect people with the knowledge and tools they need to do their jobs – better, quicker, and with greater accuracy. C2 intranet portal solutions, based on Microsoft SharePoint technologies, facilitate productivity and effectiveness across the organization by addressing end-to-end business processes.

Intranet portals dynamically aggregate information, data, documents, applications, and tools to provide a high-performance workspace based on each user’s role and responsibilities. Virtually any information, regardless of source, can be intelligently presented and secured through a portal. Accessible from any web browser or even a mobile phone or PDA, intranet portals are commonly used for:

Document sharing
Information sharing
Team workspaces inc. workflow, alert systems, calendaring
Project management
Business Intelligence inc. reporting, dashboards, key performance indicators (KPIs)

Better – and accelerated – decision making

The benefits of portals reach wider than employee productivity and team collaboration. As management is faced with the ever-quickening pace of the business world, strategic, business-critical decisions must be made on a day-to-day basis; making access to accurate, timely data essential to the health of the organization. Intranet portals provide more useful, aggregated views of data held in disparate, complex systems across the organization – CRM, ERP, etc. C2 intranet portal solutions provide access to business intelligence through dashboards and key performance indicators (KPIs); facilitating better – and accelerated – decision making.
