The main objective behind this project is to increase productivity, by

connecting people with the right content and experts in a timely manner, so as

to enable project acceleration, promote reusability in terms of processes,

tools, code set and methodologies. It also intended to create a feedback system

from users, and promoting peer mentoring and cloud mentoring.

The biggest challenge in front of them was the sharing of knowledge across

6000 people working across the geography and across 6 to 7 major verticals. It

was the key challenge to understand each business need and building the system

that would cater to all the business needs with no redundancy. Apart from these

they face the challenge to find skilled developer who can build custom modules

and deploy them along with MOSS 2007.

Finally, the outcome was the complete deployment of K-EDGE knowledge

management portal. With the help of this portal, now employees are able to

connect with peers and subject matter experts and access content faster than

ever before, thereby saving a lot of time.

Plus users have started using social networking to create their own knowledge

networks and have started leveraging personal blogging to showcase their

thoughts and ideas.
