Internet Tools at Dirt Bikes

Dirt Bike’s management has a concern about how much money is spent on communicating with people inside and outside the organization and obtaining information about developments in the motorcycle industry and the global economy. I am investigating the introduction to an intranet system and how Internet tools and technology could be used to help Dirt Bikes’ employees communicate and obtain information more efficiently by providing recommendations of various Internet tools that could be used to help those in the Dirt Bikes’ company be productive and ultimately try to save them money.

Recommendations

Since many of the staff already has a computer it means that they can be hooked up to have access to the Internet to perform better on the different tasks that the job include. I would recommend creating a secure and private network called an intranet that can allow an organization to have a network that is protected and private.

Human resources benefit from intranets by having the ability of housing all employees’ private information, manuals about the company and job descriptions they are doing, newsletters from the company about they have to offer and what is new or anything on the company’s network. This would save money from having to printing out copies of this information wasting paper and ink to make hard copies of the documents. When this information is needed, it can be sent electronically and then downloaded by those who need to view or refer to it.

Manufacturing and production benefit from intranets because it can help with work schedules by aiding in maintaining and coordinate them, and it can help with the management of inventory coming and going. In some companies you may want to expand to involve extranet that
