Norwegian Post's 20.000 employees get advanced Search from IntelliSearch

PRESS RELEASE
Lysaker, 18. October 2006

The Norwegian Post has rolled out a new intranet to its 20.000 employees, where the search platform IntelliSearch ENTERPRISE enables central information access to all documents and information sources.

The search platform enables a central information access to portals, personnel information, collaboration rooms and document management systems. The platform is integrated with the systems SharePoint, Meridio, MS Exchange and file servers. Bouvet, the consultancy company, is the system integrator.

The customer's project leader, Vidar Holmane, has the following comments about the project: "We needed a new work tool to simplify and improve our ways of working. The chosen solution was a new intranet portal embedded with advanced search. Search and reuse of information is very important in an organisation with the size of the Norwegian Post. IntelliSearch ENTERPRISE gives us access to information across organisational units, across collaboration rooms, and across systems. The project is already financially breaking even through consolidation of old systems, and we see a large potential in a more productive workplace for our employees. After one day of operations, 7.700 employees have used the solution and we have had 250.000 information access requests. Early response from the users varies between ‘good’ and ‘very good’. Another good indicator is the support desk, which has had little traffic" concludes Mr. Holmane.

IntelliSearch is pleased with the Norwegian Post's successful system implementation, and with their perspective on the future business benefits tied to Enterprise Search. Our experience shows that information intensive industries have large opportunities in connection with Enterprise Search implementation, says IntelliSearch CEO Mr. Harald Jellum in a comment.
