While the Internet dominates the technology spotlight in most A/E firms, its little sister, the corporate intranet, hasn't received the same level of attention. Corporate web sites are more common than intranets in the design and construction industry, and firms generally spend more time, energy, and money on their web sites. But A/E firms that aren't focusing resources on developing an effective intranet are missing the boat.
Many progressive firms in the A/E industry are using their intranet to work cheaper, faster, and better. AEC Intranet Cookbook will show you how your firm can become one of them.
