Major Financial Institution to Save A$2.3 Million Per Year With Microsoft

Overview Rapid developments in technology and changes to the banking landscape have left many financial institutions with an inefficient IT infrastructure. For one major Australian financial institution, these changes meant it was maintaining four different intranets across three platforms. To overcome its Web content management problems, the company engaged Microsoft Gold Certified Partner OBS to find a solution that would enable it to build a single global intranet. OBS and the company developed a content management system using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise Edition. This pilot project showed the technology had the potential to significantly improve the company's intranet issues, workflows and staff productivity.
