A short but interesting article on the rising profile of the corporate intranet (PDF -24Kb). Published by the FT, but made available on the Intranet Benchmarking Forum's website.
I particularly like the example of the BBC, who estimate they have saved £1.7M by putting taxi bookings through the intranet.
It shows that the benefits of an intranet can be as much about the small everyday issues of business as the high-minded ideals of knowledge management and collaboration. Small savings on frequently executed (and yes mundane) transactions like cab booking, or expense claims can also deliver ROI.
