DESCRIPTION
This presentation covers ways in which to utilise the tagging features of SharePoint 2007 to create an attractive and easy-to-use intranet portal. The New Zealand Ministry of Transport corporate intranet is used as an example. This intranet won several awards including Microsoft’s Partner Solution of the year award, and was named in Neilson Norman Group’s “Top Ten Intranets of 2008”. A key part of this project was defining the information architecture (IA) for the site, and then designing the site structure around the IA to ensure optimal usability. The second key part of the project was to include community features that would engage intranet users and keep them coming back to the site. This session will cover how the IA and community tools were designed and delivered using MOSS 2007.

Outcomes
“The redesign results go beyond just general satisfaction—they’re having a positive effect on staff productivity as well.”
“We’ve had overwhelmingly positive feedback from staff and higher uptake of the intranet.”
“The Alerts and Announcements feature helped to reduce the stress on staff of having a build-up of emails—that may or may not be relevant—cluttering their in-boxes.”
