U SE C ASE – U SER R OLES Sharon Bradley, Contract Attorney Jones & Associates Location: Chicago Company Size : 15 employees Background Sharon Bradley has been working at Jones and Associates for less than a year. She is now adapting to her new environment and discovering that this smaller firm does not have as many choices in technology resources that the large firm had. In particular, her options are limited in terms of collaboration tools that allow her to collaboratively draft contracts with opposing counsel and clients. The firm’s security policy does not allow firm employees to house confidential documents outside of their local computer network which is protected from unauthorized access by a firewall and internal network passwords. Their office does not have a full time IT staff and is largely left to their own devices using a standard collection of applications that include MS Office, including an Exchange server and Outlook for email communication, Antivirus, and Internet Explorer.

11. A FFORDANCES Easy Access to Documents via the Internet: Establish a dedicated extranet site with its own URL that can be accessed by all parties via the Internet Assure that this site is accessed via a secure Internet protocol such as HTTPS. Assure that the tools or applications needed to access this area are standard applications that are installed by default on most computers. User and Group Based Permissions Control Control access to this site by establishing user roles and configuring granular permissions at both the site level and the document level. Allow for ability to categorize documents in order to link the categories to specific access permissions. Allow for auditing of document revision history. Ability to Organize Documents by User Roles Organizing documents should be as easy as maintaining folder hierarchies in Windows Explorer. Provide ability to run an integrated application that will allow the collaboration session host to share the desktop so that all connected parties can view real-time document revisions.

U SE C ASE – D OCUMENT R EPOSITORY Michael K.Wilson, CIO Ziegler, Giles, Ward & Associates Location: Chicago, Atlanta, New York, San Diego, Shanghai, London, Dubai Company Size : 700 employees Background Michael started 2 years ago as CIO at Ziegler, Giles, Ward & Associates (ZGWA), a small private firm that handles executive recruitment. He was challenged with trying to adapt to the non-existent document repository at ZGWA, and the lack of collaboration with project teams globally outside of the use of email. He also struggled with the use of the file sharing system for storage due to the limitations in security and accessibility across the global offices. He noticed that the intranet used by the firm was not an enterprise solution. In fact, it was built in-house by a couple of developers who were asked to create a web-based solution to share company announcements and events. iConnect (the intranet portal) was built with very simplistic system goals, is a very limited solution used by US employees only. It did not include document management functionality nor was it built for expandability.
