Case Study 2The Registry Intranet
Began as a small “proof-of-concept” project
- A demonstrator to provide (limited) central information
- e.g. exam and teaching timetables
- An “administration server”
- accessed by simply typing “admin” into browser
Once people saw what was possible…..
- Requests to provide information on others’ behalf
- Spawned other departmental intranet servers
The information is all there
- Making it available is technically easy
- But it takes time, needs staff (and costs money)
Very successful
- But not yet “strategic” - still a “local” initiative
