Intranet Business Value: Publication Cost Savings
Many companies have derived business value from their intranet applications. Intranet using companies report cost reductions, revenue increases or other benefits after they replaced traditional methods of accomplishing information publishing and other business processes with intranet based methods.
Many companies are replacing the publications of paper documents, company newsletter and employee manuals with electronic multimedia versions published on intranet Web servers.
Eliminations of printing, mailing and distribution costs are a major source of cost savings. Companies are also electronically publishing telephone directories, human resource materials, company policies, job openings, and many other former paper–based communications on intranet websites.
Companies that use web technology to distribute documents may experience momentous gains in productivity and incredible cost savings.
Like the reengineering craze that has marked the other half of the client/server revolution, converting many paper-based systems to web systems can save both labor and over head costs within an organization.
