Intranets

Implementation Checklist - Act

Implement the intranet

  • Launch the intranet - you will need to market it to staff and provide ongoing training and encouragement to achieve critical mass.
  • In the transition phase, consider running old systems in tandem.
  • Encourage staff involvement and feedback. This will help smooth implementation, as staff buy-in can make or break a technology project.
  • Evaluate
  • Monitor and review the impact on your business and how this measures against your objectives.
  • Conduct user testing to see how easy it is for people to find what they need on the intranet, and seek advice on how to improve it.
  • Evaluate the impact after 6 months and 1 year. Have you achieved your objectives? Establish how you could improve things further.
  • Continue to develop the intranet - to deliver the best results, an intranet has to change with your business.
