Portals pay off. Whether you need to aggregate information, collaborate with partners or integrate your applications, portals make it happen by making it easier to communicate and share information with others.

That is, if a portal is built with everything and everyone in mind.

We know how portals can impact an entire organization. Your business processes, communication plans, system architecture and especially your people need to be included in the equation. That's why we work closely with clients to understand all facets of their business and infrastructure before developing or improving an existing portal solution.

Services

Strategy and Analysis

We can start by helping you define the goals and benefits you hope to achieve through a portal implementation. Then, we’ll document a strategy that not only fits your business and system requirements, but accounts for all the stakeholders and existing company resources that will be contributing to the project.

Product Evaluation and Selection

Find a consultant you can trust, not another salesperson. We’ll help you learn more about your options as we work together to evaluate various portal products based on your unique business and system requirements. Let us help you understand the limitations and advantages of all your options before you commit to any one solution.

Architecture and System Design

Lasting portals fit their environment. We can generate architectural and design patterns that will serve as the portal’s guiding principles in development. This will better enable integration with other applications and make the portal more conducive to future enhancements and modifications when business needs change.

Portal Integration

Portals keep it together, allowing you and your users to get more out of your online applications. Portal Integration provides the benefit of having disparate applications integrated into a single user interface. Implement a single sign-on solution, integrate custom or third party applications, and you’ll streamline processes and enhance your user experience. From design to integration, we’ll maximize your portal’s effectiveness.

Program Management and Customer Advocacy

Maintaining your portals well begins with a documented plan. We’ll develop a project office that will enable you to manage the portal according to your changing business environment. This includes a governance model for the site and its integrated applications, a release management strategy and a quality assurance plan.

User Experience Design and Testing

Effective portals know their users. We’ll create a user experience that takes advantage of portal technology and its ability to provide access to corporate wide information and services in a unified user interface. Your users will be more engaged, giving you more results from your portal implementation.

Performance Tuning

Know your portal’s capacity and how to expand it to your needs. We’ll create test scripts and perform load testing, which will allow you to understand how your portal performs under various usage scenarios. Then we’ll help you fine-tune your application and execute stress tests based on project growth to ensure that it can keep up with both your business objectives.
