In case you missed Collaborate back in April, we are starting a series of posts with links to white papers written by some of Fishbowl’s best.  Stay tuned for weekly updates!

We’re starting with an overview of Fishbowl Solution’s Oracle WebCenter based Intranet in a Box framework with a link to a white paper for more information.

Organizations look for a fast and hassle-free way to provide greater value to their business after purchasing WebCenter Suite.  This can be accomplished with a well designed, personalized and frequently updated intranet site that creates desire in employees to contribute content and to keep coming back.  Fishbowl Solution’s personalized WebCenter-based intranet framework is moving organizations from “what now?” to “what’s next?”  with quick startup time, easy user contribution, and a user-controlled site structure that does not involve IT.  It is a combination of WebCenter Portal and WebCenter Content that lay the perfect foundation for this framework we have named Intranet in a Box (IIAB).  IIAB incorporates proven software and services to create portal-based and content-driven intranet sites that enable personalization, improve navigation and enhance search.

An overview of IIAB Benefits:

Quick Time to Value

  • 60 days or less for standard intranet jumpstart

Quick Uptime:

  • Familiar design, contribution and deployment patterns

Lowers Total Investment Costs:

  • Reusable/repeatable framework leverages existing Oracle technology investments

Empowered Users:

  • Contributing non-IT users can easily create and change both the navigation and the content

Sticking to core concepts like user-driven site structure, reusability, and ease of contribution allow IIAB to be redeployed across many environments.  By using our pre-built framework to kick start a portal-based and content-centric intranet, businesses have the answer to provide greater value to their organization.
