Tangible benefits of an intranet
Why build a corporate intranet? Developers will tell you because we can. A better answer is that it is an effective tool to combat the waste of time, effort and materials within an organization at the same time generating new opportunities for collaboration and productivity. For the first time, an organization has the ability to put one, open-standards, thin client (the Web browser) as the interface to their corporate data and business processes.

The tangible benefits, those that executives can wrap their arms around, of intranet creation can be summarized below. A good example of a tangible benefit is the reduction in paper cost from moving processes online. Certain statistics quote that 18% of corporate printed material becomes outdated after 30 days. Imagine, that after 60 or 90 days. Now, imagine if that material were always online and current.
