Establish an Intranet Business Model
How will your departments interact with information systems to gain Web sites or Web applications on your intranet? Will they be required to set up their own servers or "purchase" Web server space from IS?

Decisions on how intranet development will be handled must be made from a business perspective. In many organizations, IS is the controller of all Web servers, and all requests must go through IS to set up anything on the network. Other companies have a more open environment.

Some organizations have established that individual departments should outsource their own development and pay for it from their own budgets directly. Other companies have decided that intranet development is paid for from IS where individual departments are "charged back" as applications are built.

Choose a business model that best fits your organization.
