Abstract:

Intranets were originally intended for internal use within an organisation but the advances in technology have enabled organisations to extend their Intranets in innovative ways beyond the geo-organisational sphere. Using the taxonomy of Intranet diffusion drivers, this paper presents the implementation of the Global Intranet using the case of an international research organisation. It also discusses how applications of the Global Intranet are being used in various modes - for publishing, transacting, interacting, searching, and recording purposes, in order to support cross-border knowledge sharing. The major challenges are in the provision of up-to-date information and making the applications more interactive. The experiences reported here could assist organisations in cross-border knowledge sharing using Global Intranets
