Our focus is to deliver solutions that meet the needs of your organisation.

Intranet Solutions

An intranet portal is the gateway that unifies access to all enterprise information and applications on an intranet. It is a tool that helps a company manage its data, applications, and information more easily, and through personalized views. Some portal solutions today are able to integrate legacy applications, objects from other portals, and handle thousands of user requests. In a corporate enterprise environment, it is also known as an enterprise portal.

Our intranets can include all the following features:

• Project portals
• Discussion boards, wikis and forums
• Knowledge bases
• Shared calendars
• Self-service areas (featuring expenses forms, pay slips and holiday request forms)
• Policy and procedural documents
• All the broadcasting features of a traditional intranet

Extranet Solutions:

To work effectively, your organisation needs to collaborate closely with its suppliers, partners and customers.

We can create smart extranets using Microsoft SharePoint 2013 that improve levels of collaboration in your supply and delivery chain, enhance productivity and significantly reduce costs.

Our custom-built extranets work as a single, central resource that’s home to all your documents. This is far simpler and more manageable than having multiple versions of your documents in paper format or flying around your organisation via email.

• Give your customers access to a secure portal to review and track the status of orders/service requests
• Collaborate with your partners, sharing tools like calendars, tasks and information storage areas.
• Interact with your suppliers via a secure location to update order requests, delivery times, status and quantities, etc.

Our extranets will help you:

• Store and exchange data quickly, reliably, simply
• Reduce errors and improve efficiency
• Create a solid audit trail and ensure best-practice

We’ve built smart extranets for many organisations including clients from the Insurance, Fund Management and Captive Management sectors.
