Intranets--Inside Connection

Welcome to the convenient world of intranets.

This is the world Lehigh hopes to inhabit by the end of the month. The printer is in the midst of designing an intranet that will give workers access to telephone listings, benefits information and, best of all, policy manuals.

Currently, Lehigh is undergoing BPA (business process analysis) re-engineering. The company has written new software, called Delta, to automate functions like estimating, scheduling and job planning. "We're trying to blur the lines between the automation and the business," Thornton explains.
