Sorce, Ltd.

摘要

Focusing on efficiency and cost reduction for mid-sized companies may not be the most glamorous goal, but it is a strategy that has enabled SORCE, Ltd. to grow at 40%-50% per year since its founding in 2000. SORCE builds prepackaged intranet and extranet software solutions for mid-size companies ranging from 50 employees to 50,000. 'The deciding factor for whether a company needs an intranet," according to founder John Nicklin, "depends not on how big the company is but how many people outside the organization they need to communicate with." He adds, "If a company has 50 employees who communicate with 500 clients, then they need a client extranet. Otherwise, instead of building community, you are just bouncing emails off your clients all day." Founded on the need to bring rapid deployment and flexibility to the sluggish process of designing and building a company intranet, the software company has since established a credo of delivering tangible business process improvements. Speed is still a factor, and the company claims to offer an intranet and extranet product that can be fully deployed within 12 weeks, even for large organizations.
