Brilliant article.
Would it be possible for us to contact each other through personal email, just to go over some areas?

Much apreciated.
Mayur.

Good to see Prahalad & Ramaswamy’s value model applied to practical Intranet building. Deep in intranet land right now, I’m aware that a lot of recent IA/UE thinking has been in the more glamorous internet, public space; I’m digging back into older application methodologies to design work flow support, collaboration, monitoring, role based personalisation as well as compelling content.Given that these projects typically happen in large companies this has also meant trying to integrate user experience design methodology with RUP and other system based methods.(It can work) Much of the ROI of increased user productivity is unfortunately being discounted. I’m hearing that the extra x hours saved doesn’t necessarily translate to increased revenue for companies, particularly white collar sectors where employee computer use is high. Pity. A good argument though is on reduced time to production for subsequent portal, reusable components and iterative roll outs.
Thanks for a great article.

Excellent article! I’m happy to see others working through the subtlties of intranet design/evolution. I’m doing this for a large client, and we’re learning some amazing things. I especially like the notion of using a services model to keep the work and governance focused.
