Enterprise Portals
The enterprise portal can be compared to a carpenter's toolbox, where efficiencies are gained by having complementary tools accessible via central, organized container. In much the same way, an enterprise portal provides a consolidated set of applications and data to employees and/or customers. Having this toolset available may result in increased employee efficiency, greater productivity, and stronger customer relationships.
One of the greatest challenges in accomplishing such results, however, is ensuring that a portal's functionality aligns with its company's organizational processes and informational needs. For that reason, Peart-Hannon's approach to implementing portals systems is based on establishing a thorough understanding of a company's operations. Via proven requirements-analysis process, Peart-Hannon works with clients to determine an optimal portal design for that company's informational needs.
