It is not only the removal of paper that leads to organizational benefit. What is done with that information in this new Web-enabled environment has a huge impact. Intranets allow an organization to spend less time on things that bring no value such as chasing down the right information to solve a problem.
Productivity increases as corporate knowledge is more accessible and the data is more accurate.
Flexibility in time of delivery of knowledge is gained as information is always a click away. Intranets allow for a place where boundaries are lowered and information exchange is encouraged. This leads to more informed employees with the ability to make better, faster decisons. This in turn leads to better productivity and more time for revenue generation.
