Intranet Development in Southampton
An internal site where a Southampton business's staff can actually find things — policies, forms, contacts, how to do the thing they only do twice a year. Intranets have a poor reputation because most are abandoned within a year, and the reasons for that are predictable and avoidable.
Why this comes up
The problem
The intranet was built, launched and left. Content is three years stale, search returns nothing useful, and staff ask a colleague instead — which is the only measure that matters.
What you get
What we deliver
- Search that works, since it is how most people navigate rather than the menu
- Content ownership assigned per section, with review dates that actually fire
- The things people look for most, identified from asking rather than assuming
- Structure based on tasks people need to do, not on the organisational chart
- Mobile access for staff without desks, who are usually the worst served
- A retirement process for stale content, because unmaintained pages destroy trust in all of it

Intranet Development in Southampton — common questions
- Why do intranets get abandoned?
- No content owners and no review cycle. Once staff find one out-of-date page they stop trusting the rest, and recovering that trust is much harder than maintaining it. It is a governance problem rather than a technology one.
- Should we build it or use SharePoint?
- SharePoint covers most needs and you probably already pay for it. Building is worth considering where you need genuine integration with operational systems, or where the audience is deskless staff that SharePoint serves awkwardly.
- How should it be structured?
- Around what people are trying to do, not around departments. Staff look for booking holiday or ordering equipment; they do not think in terms of which department owns the form.
- How do we know it is working?
- Search logs, particularly the searches returning nothing. That list is the most useful content plan you will get, because it is people telling you exactly what they expected to find and did not.
- Do you work with businesses across Hampshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Southampton and the surrounding Hampshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Southampton businesses do you usually work with?
- Scheduling and capacity systems that survive seasonal peaks are the recurring need, driven by the port, cruise and tourism economy. Beyond that we work across Maritime & Shipping, Cruise & Tourism, Higher Education, Healthcare and Logistics.
- Do you cover the areas around Southampton?
- Yes — we work throughout South East, including Portsmouth, Reading, Bristol. Southampton is an urban area of roughly 330,000+, and we take on work across the wider Hampshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
