Gone are the days when one had to send a letter, give it a week for delivery and with patience wait for another fourteen days before getting a response. Taking an example of a business setup that has twigs in other towns, a network of computers with internet access and other customized programs would ensure quick communication and timely reactions to important queries.

Inside my first place of work, I implemented an online payroll system which allowed users to view their pay slipping at their convenience, search for old pay slipping, submit their time cards and print only the details they needed. Earlier on, the same documents must be printed, hand put into envelopes and dispatched to various twigs via paid courier service. These then must be hand business setup in dubai sorted out at the recipient's end causing a delay and misplacement of some documents.

I have also seen the intranet working wonders in many organizations. If well managed, the intranet holds all the information that the company would like to share its employees. Suppose the managing director wants to send a memo to the whole organization, instead of pinning the printed information on physical notice boards, he can post the same on the intranet and have all employees see the information at the click of a mouse.

Other kinds of information such as sales targets, company performance, assessment targets, company's product information, telephone directory, photo gallery for various events and anything else that one would like to share can be posted on the intranet.

Information technology has for sure changed the way business is conducted and has allowed smooth business operations.
