The computer consulting industry can be broken into two major segments: supplemental staffing and project-oriented firms.  Most staffing firms provide technical services across a range of engagements and are driven to maximize billable hours.  In this role they will seldom take full responsibility for the solution to a client problem.  Exponential is not a staffing company.   At the other extreme the "Big 4" consulting firms specialize in re-engineering their clients' basic business practices.  Unlike the "Big 4" Exponential focuses on integrating technical business solutions so that they complement and enhance existing business practices which in turn leads to further business opportunities for the client organization to evaluate and act upon.   Many project-oriented firms our size concentrate on a specific vertical marketplace and often sell software and hardware along with expertise.  Exponential provides project-oriented technical services across a wide range of industries.

Intranet Sites :: An intranet is a private Web site that is available only to certain people, such as the employees of a company. All information contained and distributed on an intranet is secured by a firewall, which limits access to users inside your organization.  A staff intranet can be more than a bulletin board. Intranets can increase collaboration, streamline administration, and aid scheduling. 

    Collaboration

  • Discuss. Chat rooms, discussion forums, and e-mail discussion lists can enable your staff to discuss company strategies and provide a mechanism for on-going performance evaluation.
  • Conference. Audio/video conferencing can help your staff collaborate throughout your organization and enable them to attend meetings from remote offices. Staff members can be more productive when they don’t have to travel to meetings and when they can work while listening to a broadcast. 
  • Research. A research and resource library on your intranet can be a timesaver. Use document libraries on the network and easily convert information to Web pages, use Web-based forms to allow staff to submit articles and links, or put training materials online—not just text but audio and video clips as well.

    Administration

  • Share. Regulations, emergency procedures, human resources materials, and other relatively static information can be posted on the intranet. Converting paper-based forms to the intranet can dramatically simplify information flow and filing.
  • Store. The intranet is also a great place to put information that changes regularly. Staff directory databases can be accessed — and updated — from the intranet.
  • Schedule. You can put many types of schedules on your intranet, including staff meetings, conferences, and other activities.
  • Vote. You can set up online voting on staff decisions. You can save valuable meeting time and include all staff members at their convenience.
Extranet Sites :: Extranets are private web sites that provide secure environments for a select group of users, typically clients, partners, or co-workers in remote locations, to share documents and information.   Levels of access can be customized to manage the amount and type of information made available to different groups of users.  Benefits of extranets can include:
  • Shorter development cycles through enhanced collaboration, faster approvals, instant access to information, and reduced travel and training time
  • Cost savings associated with more efficient employee training, reduced cost of mailing and distribution of materials, faster invoicing, and reduced person-to-person service calls.
