Adera: Astrakan to build intranet for Strängbetong
Adera: Astrakan to build intranet for Strängbetong Following a tendering process, Adera-owned Astrakan has secured the contract to build Strängbetong's intranet. Strängbetong is one of Sweden's leading companies within building-construction and civil engineering projects. Based on Astrakan's proprietary "e-core ms" platform, the intranet will in this instance consist of a number of function modules with a ready-to-use administrative interface. "E-core ms" comprises a large number of components for the publication of content on websites. The combination of a number of Astrakan's intranet modules will give Strängbetong an advanced intranet, destined to become one of the most important tools for enhancing skills within the company's organization and for improving internal information. The interface is designed to enable Strängbetong's personnel themselves to fill the intranet with valuable information. "Since we at Astrakan focus on quality and cost-effectiveness for our customers, we have developed a work method that allows us to proceed rapidly from the initial study to a fully functioning solution," explains Martin Randler, responsible for business development at Astrakan. "With solutions based on 'e-core ms,' we can quickly provide benefits to our customers." One of the functions included in the intranet is a link to Strängbetong's document-handling system, DOCSOpen. The intranet's web interface is designed to enable users to search for information among files and folders in the same manner they are used to. Other functions ordered by Strängbetong include report generation from another computer environment and questionnaire handling. "Astrakan has demonstrated the full breadth and depth of their expertise, and we have formed the impression that their development work on intranet functions is extremely soundly based," comments Magnus Sjölander, project manager at Strängbetong. "Astrakan supplied several favorable references, and the company's personnel have shown that they have a thorough understanding of our industry and our needs." Strängbetong's intranet is scheduled to be implemented before the end of this year.
