Intranet Functionality

I did some research on intranets when I had a job interview. I didn't go for the job in the end, but it seems a shame to waste the info, so here it is!

Key intranet functionality

  • Home page - with links to various parts of the web site and to other internet based applications and web sites.

  • About us – information on organisation: five-year-plan, mission statement etc., making sure important corporate messages are communicated
    to all employees.

  • Searchable directory of staff and stakeholders, important clients/suppliers: with telephone nos, email profile info, photo (VERY useful!) and summary of job role & skills - updatable by individual concerned

  • Searchable resources section - strategies, plans, policies for health and safety and customer management policies and all-important procedures. Evaluation and personnel documents

  • Calendar tool - Events and Seminars - publicise key events that managers and employees should know about.

  • Book resources online - whatever's relevant, e.g., room bookings, hospitality.

  • Expenses claim form - with online submission if possible

  • News section - internal news and newsletters, link to press coverage database.

  • Suggestions e-submission: Bright Ideas

  • Social section - classifieds, info on social events and
    clubs etc. advertise social events and small sales

  • Internal forums for projects, corporate intitiaves, social
    eg a group for learning french.

  • Marketing Campaigns

  • Job vacancies

  • Full content management system for ease of data maintenance. Multi-level admin access for different people.

  • Individual login to intranet determines what is visible/concealed

Which methods and techniques using new technologies are of real use?

Writing in the digital age is so much more than delivering information, or traditional stories and poems electronically. Digital forms of literature can include text, hyperlinks, multi-linear plots, superlinear narrative, graphics, interactivity, animation... and so much more.
