3 Ways an Intranet Can Revolutionize Your Operations

There are countless moving parts for any business, and if you don’t keep your operations organized, you could quickly find yourself losing grasp of your business in the worst ways. SMBs might use instant messaging, shared drives, and endless email chains to communicate internally, but there’s a better, less clunky solution. We’re looking into the intranet, a digital hub for your business that offers several benefits.

What is an Intranet Solution?

An intranet is a centralized repository for your important business information, including the following:

• HR policies
• Employee handbooks
• Company directories
• Departmental guidelines
• Frequently asked questions
• Frequently accessed resources
• Anything else your employees need to access on a daily basis

You can think about it like the “one-stop shop” for the important resources that keep your business moving, and making all of this easy to access can offer serious operational benefits for your company.

The Benefits of an Intranet

Streamlined Communication and Information Sharing

The intranet offers one centralized internal communications platform for announcements, preventing the need to blow up your employees’ inboxes and eliminating the risk of important messages getting lost in the shuffle. An intranet also ensures that employees have access to important files they might need throughout the day, streamlining operations by making your team more self-sufficient and autonomous.

Enhanced Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing

You can use an intranet to house collaboration tools like discussion boards, project dashboards, documentation, and so much more. You essentially create an environment where your team can work together toward your business’ shared goals. Over time, your business will benefit from this ever-growing repository of knowledge, making it a living, breathing representation of your business’ expertise.

Boosted Employee Engagement and Company Culture

An intranet also provides a platform where employees can be recognized for their efforts, as well as a place where they can connect and interact with one another. Through your intranet, you can build a connected and informed workforce, whether it’s through a company event calendar, social groups, or even an informal digital platform for discussion. With greater engagement, your employees will be more productive and less likely to leave your business for other work environments.
