Now it's time for other companies to benefit from our experience. HP is ready to support you in planning, designing, implementing, and operating your customized enterprise portal.

Your company's organization and business model determine how to design an enterprise portal that will deliver the greatest value to your business. Our portal specialists have the experience to successfully complete your projects. Using a proven methodology, HP Services helps you identify the areas of your business that would benefit most from portal technology.

The benefits delivered by a portal depend on what type of portal you have – business to business, business to consumer, and so on. But in general, an enterprise portal will:

• Reduce the cost of doing business
• Free up critical resources
• Make it easier for employees and others to access up-to-date information and applications according to their roles in the organization
• Allow users to do their own information collection and analysis
• Improve working relationships between employees and partners, customers and other stake holders
• Let people make better decisions based on a complete knowledge base

Any corporation with employees at many sites in several countries or who have a large number of supply and demand partners is likely to see a particularly fast return on its investment from its portals project.

If you haven’t decided whether an enterprise portal is right for your business or if you don’t know what type of portal would be best, turn to HP for answers.
