MCI Consolidates Portals, Saves Company Time, and Reduces Maintenance Costs
Overview Communications company MCI, Inc. offers voice, Internet, and data services worldwide. For several years, MCI used numerous Web portals to provide information and services. However, company departments frequently developed portals independently, using solutions that required different logon procedures. By 2003, MCI had more than 100 different customer-facing portal sites. Users were frustrated, and the disparate technologies were expensive to maintain and license. In 2004, MCI worked with Microsoft Services and Microsoft Strategic Alliance Partner Accenture to migrate the portals to a single solution based largely on Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003. Microsoft Services oversaw the project, provided technical expertise, and trained MCI IT staff. The new solution has saved MCI an average of 600 hours of development time annually and cut licensing and maintenance costs.
