Having created a number of external web sites for a national
business gift supplier, we were asked to create a intranet
system for them. The system was produced in ASP, linking to
the company's Access and SQL Server databases. The suite included
a supplier administration area, where all the company's suppliers
are listed along with full contact details, and an internal
coding system showing the types of products they supply and
a listing of their products with thumbnails and links to full
details.
Another
section allows any authorised staff member to add a news article
to a bulletin board. This news article is distributed to all
other staff and shown in a colour coded format on an electronic
notice board for one month.
Yet another section shows the company's past jobs with photographs
and detailed ordering information - this makes re-ordering
supplies very easy.
The customers area of the intranet site allows company staff
to add and edit customer contact details and draft and send
promotional emails; a log is made of which emails are sent
to which customers.
And a product area allows products information to be added
and edited - this changes the main database which serves a
number of the company's external internet sites.
At the heart of it all is a functional links page which is
set as the homepage for each employee's web browser. This
page links to all the intranet areas, the company's external
sites, administration areas and useful external links such
as mapping, news and telephone directory sites.
Our intranet system has revolutionalised their internal working
procedures.
Being an internal system, we are unable to offer a live link
to this project.
