Development of an intranet solution from Confluence-Basis for circa 3,500 users.

Design-Adaptation:

The intranet is provided with an individual Confluence theme, that corresponds with the company to give the employees a comfortable, familiar impression. Also, numerous usability and functional optimizations of the Confluence standard interface were made, which makes it easier for users to work with the Intranet as a work tool.

Globale Navigation: 

The intranet supports openly configurable global navigation menus that can be customized for different user groups. These with other forms of personalization are planned in the later course of the project.

Individual App-Store:

Directly from the intranet home page, each user can control the internal and external applications that are personally relevant to them simply by clicking on them.
The applications shown can be assembled by the user. The functions also offer recommended apps to the user.

Advanced User Profile:

Thanks to extended user profiles, the intranet offers the possibility of a company-wide expert search, which allows contacts to be identified quickly in a specific subject area with a single search query.

News Channels:

There is the possibility to broadcast company news in the intranet on target groups, e.g. restricted to specific user groups.

Integrated Applications:

Forums, offers/searches (Blackboard), Discussion forums, and "carpooling" (still in planning).
