Edelman wanted to build a new intranet to meet its evolving corporate needs. It wanted an intranet that would integrate information from different corporate systems, enable employees to easily find other employees and corporate assets, and make it possible for individuals and practices to quickly and simply update and modify their own intranet Web pages. The platform also accommodate live news feed and other dynamic content
the Human Resources system at Edelman, which runs on software from PeopleSoft, pushes information about employee,everything from phone numbers and addresses to managers’ names and practice affiliationsinto Active Directory. Then, on a regular basis Edelman Fusion Server copies this employee information from Active Directory so that it can maintain an up-to-date contact list for everyone in the enterprise.Edelman has taken the personalization even further by integrating NewsGator Social Sites™ into its intranet. NewsGator Social Sites has added rich features for cross-organizational collaboration, discussion, and networking. So they can follow the updates of their friends and co-workers, whether they’re writing about a current project or an upcoming social event.When Edelman built its first intranet, the majority of the company’s intellectual property—its case studies, research, proposals, new business efforts, and the like—already resided in file servers in various locations around the world. With Fusion, Edelman is expanding this accessibility by integrating SharePoint discussions and metadata capabilities with existing and new files, allowing for more than just document data to be captured. Moreover, Fusion maintains an index of all the documents within those libraries—more than 50 million documents to date—and refreshes that index on a daily basis. Employees searching for information in the corporate knowledge store can quickly and easily find it from a search box on their home screen.
