JELD-WEN is a manufacturer of windows and doors that was dissatisfied with its outdated and inefficient corporate intranet. It provided inaccurate and hard to find information that wasted employees' time. JELD-WEN partnered with IBM to create a new intranet portal that centralized relevant business information to improve productivity. The new portal organized content and approval processes. It provided managers quick access to tools and information they needed to perform their jobs effectively and focus on core tasks. Usage metrics showed the majority of managers now use the intranet regularly, improving their productivity and the company's operations.

Open Source and the New Economics of IT - Ingres CIO Doug HarrAlfresco Software
http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/webcasts
Open source ECM is proven to :
* Lower Total Cost of Ownership
* Eliminate licensing fees and vendor lock-in
* Deliver faster proofs-of-concept
* Provide a complete solution for managing all enterprise content
Many companies are already leveraging open source ECM to take control of their ever growing business content at a fraction of the cost of proprietary ECM market solutions and without the danger of vendor lock-in.
The Ingres ECM Bundle for Alfresco enables innovative document management, team collaboration, and knowledge management applications.
Basing the ECM solution on Ingres Database guarantees unique high availability features that make compliance with auditing requirements an easier task, and cost much less.
Ingres CIO Doug Harr shares examples on how he uses content management solutions from Alfresco.
He also discusses the significant trends affecting the IT market today.
Embracing The New Economics of IT by adopting open source ECM will help companies to:
* better maintain their systems during the economic downturn,
* keep essential projects alive, and
* pursue innovation that can help guarantee a competitive advantage when conditions improve.
1. “The corporate intranet
did not reflect the
business acumen and
commitment to quality
that JELD-WEN
demonstrates in other
parts of the company.”
–Rob Jellesed, Coordinating Business
Systems Manager for Administrative
Services, JELD-WEN
e-business on demand™
JELD-WEN, based in Klamath Falls,
Oregon, is one of the world’s foremost
manufacturers of reliable windows
and doors. With its beginnings as a
small Oregon millwork plant in 1960,
JELD-WEN (www.jeld-wen.com)
has grown into a company of more
than 20,000 employees and 150
divisions, whose brands have sold
hundreds of millions of window and
door units globally.
Excelling in high-quality windows
and doors, JELD-WEN has earned
a reputation for reliable and energy-
efficient products at an excellent
value. JELD-WEN’s corporate-wide
company intranet, however, was nei-
ther high quality nor efficient, and
JELD-WEN crafts responsive,
energy-efficientWeb portal.
Overview
Challenge
Provide management with improved
communications tools to oversee
basic business operations and
enhance management productivity
Why On Demand?
JELD-WEN wanted to become
more responsive to managers
by providing them with quick
access to the tools and information
they needed to conduct smooth
business operations
Solution
Enterprise portal that provides a
centralized point of access to
relevant business content, enabling
managers to work more productively
Key Benefits
A majority of managers are using
the new intranet regularly, saving a
significant amount of hours previously
spent searching for information;
IT staff are receiving fewer trouble
calls, enabling them to focus on
higher-value projects, while the
portal coordinator’s productivity has
improved by 10%
With its IBM portal solution, JELD-WEN can focus its attention on providing customers with the
high-quality craftsmanship for which it is well known.
2. On Demand Benefits
• A majority of managers regularly
use the new intranet for essential
operational information,which is the
metric that JELD-WEN used to track
success of the intranet
• Managers are increasing their
productivity,saving a significant
amount of hours previously spent
searching for relevant information on
the former corporate intranet
• Not having to troubleshoot its
intranet,the ITstaff can focus on
higher-value work
• Coordinated workflow ofWebSphere
solution saves portal coordinator
two days per month that otherwise
would be spent performing routine
publishing tasks
• Materials on the portal are always
up-to-date
• The company has been able to reduce
shipping and printing costs for paper
communications
• Open standards-based environment
fits in with corporate movement
towards open trading zones that are
easy to integrate with trading partners
and back-end systems
Providing access to e-business applications in an open environment
it did little, if anything, to provide useful company information. As a corporate
communications tool, it hardly served its purpose. Without organized content
management or approval processes, the intranet was a vehicle for ad hoc
departmental communications. In basic operational areas such as accounting,
payroll, human resources, marketing, workers’ compensation and legal compli-
ance, what limited information it provided was often inaccurate or outdated, and
difficult to find and access.
To make matters worse, employees who posted information were not properly
trained or supervised for accuracy and consistency of information. This resulted
in frequent calls from the plants to corporate headquarters, requesting informa-
tion that should have been easily accessible on the intranet. This time-wasting
effort kept general managers and IT staff from more proactive, higher-value tasks.
Managers throughout the company were spending far too much time sorting
through material on the intranet to find the information they needed, which kept
them from concentrating on core business issues. After a time, they stopped
going to the intranet for information and developed their own lists of critical
information and contact names. “The corporate intranet did not reflect the busi-
ness acumen and commitment to quality that JELD-WEN demonstrates in other
parts of the company,” says Rob Jellesed, coordinating business systems man-
ager for administrative services, JELD-WEN.
To solve its problem, JELD-WEN needed to provide managers with a single point
of access to relevant, actionable information. This would enable its managers
to work more productively and ensure the smooth operational processes that
the company relied on to support its core business. “We needed to enable our
managers to be more responsive to the basic operations of the business,” says
Jellesed. “And this meant delivering the tools and information they needed to
perform their jobs effectively.”
Emerging from intranet chaos
To achieve its goals, JELD-WEN teamed up with IBM to create a new business
operations intranet that supports the company’s basic business processes.
This includes providing personalized, realtime access to accounting, marketing,
payroll, legal and workers’ compensation information. The intranet also delivers
new content management, approval and reporting procedures that ensure
relevant, timely information without clutter.
3. With a constant supply of useful operational information, managers can spend
more time on core tasks connected with manufacturing and distribution of windows
and doors. For instance, a production manager with responsibility for hundreds
of employees can access the intranet and quickly locate all the administrative
documentation that needs to be completed for employees, such as forms for
promotions, new hires and workers’ compensation claims. Then he or she can
get back to the day-to-day management of plant floor operations. The necessary
documentation is waiting in the portal, clearly aggregated by purpose rather
than by administrative department. The portal plays a critical role in aligning the
needs of operational managers with the information available across administra-
tive departments and groups.
Seeking to measure the success of the intranet through management usage,
JELD-WEN was gratified to find that a majority of managers are using the new
intranet on a regular basis. “By streamlining business operation processes,
JELD-WEN has created a new way to formulate, approve and distribute content—
and only that content—needed to run the organization,” says Jellesed.
Best-of-breed IBM products deliver easy-to-manage solution
To create a single point of access that allows for user customization, JELD-WEN
chose IBM WebSphere®
Portal Extend, Version 4.2. This product provides the
connectivity, administration and presentation services to integrate the portal
with the portlets that deliver the individual applications. JELD-WEN’s various
departments produce the content for the portal on their desktop software. Then
the documents are funneled to an appointed “portal coordinator,” who centrally
manages the portal using simple workflow for content creation and approval.
Customized portlets automatically manage personalization and versioning.
WebSphere Portal runs on IBM WebSphere Application Server for the execution
of the portlets and features a suite of IBM software including IBM DB2®
Universal
Database™
for the management of portal configuration data and access-control
and user data. WebSphere Portal content publishing components provide the
framework that enables departmental portal coordinators to manage portal
publishing tasks without help from the IT department.
The company also uses IBM WebSphere Personalization to customize the portal
based on roles of individuals in the company. JELD-WEN opted for powerful IBM
^ pSeries™
610 to run the portal software and worked with IBM Software
Services for WebSphere to implement the portal. In deciding on the pSeries,
JELD-WEN leveraged its considerable in-house AIX®
skills and the server’s track
record for outstanding performance at the company.
“IBM basically owns
the portal market, and
there’s a good reason
for that. IBM has a lot
of people who have
outstanding experience
and skills in technical
product development.”
