whitepaper Intranet Improves Productivity and Access to Information, Reduces Costs2007-11-30 Microsoft
  Brocade Communications Systems, a company specializing in data center networking solutions, needed to deliver corporate information to employees in a centralized manner. Content was difficult to locate because it was spread across disparate storage systems and locations. With help from EMC Corporation, Brocade implemented a new intranet based on Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 to give employees better access to corporate data and enhanced collaboration tools. Employees now have the tools they need to contribute to the company more effectively. They have better access to information resources, and intranet use has more than doubled. Brocade employees also improve efficiency by using automated workflow processes and templates to manage projects.

whitepaper Las Vegas Hotel Improves Decision Making and Guest Satisfaction With In-House Portal2007-04-01 Microsoft
  The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas is an immensely popular location in one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world. The hotel wanted to give employees the right information at the right time to enhance guest service and make better decisions, but printed newsletters and overfull e-mail inboxes were problematic. So the hotel created an intranet portal using out-of-the-box components from Microsoft software that the hotel owned - and without the help of outside consultants. The portal grew, a page at a time, to encompass information from all hotel departments. The results: Staffing and financial decisions can be made more quickly, in time to affect both labor costs and guest satisfaction.

whitepaper IBM Intranet Fine Tuned for Increased Capacity0000-00-00 IBM
  The IBM intranet - the IBM On Demand Workplace - serves the information needs of its employees both on IBM premises and working remotely. The On Demand Workplace integrates information sources enterprise wide, enabling employees to respond with speed to any customer demand, market opportunity or external threat. Although successful in terms of aggregating a wide range of business-critical information services IBM realized that the existing structure of the portal was not going to continue to meet the growing information needs of its employees. By implementing a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), however, the problem could be solved. IBM WebSphere XD enables applications to get more value out of legacy resources without requiring additional computing power.
