SAFIRA 2.0

Google SAFIRA

Index and search an entire enterprise using the Google technology, the best and most widely used search technology. At SAFIRA we do it with the Google Search Appliance, aka GSA, which is nothing more than Google in a yellow box.

Create awesome mashups and plug-ins to index reference corporate data and internet Web Services. Return everything there is to know about a customer, in a coherent results page, just by searching his customer ID. It’s easily accomplished by developing Google plug-ins that index our ERP, CRM, documents, project wikis and everything that has an URL or runs on a database. And that’s just the beginning. Search employee information (except salary receipts), corporate news, pools, surveys, group calendar and every other bit of data.

Remeber life before Google? Didn’t think so. Make Goggle SAFIRA the front door to our corporate web 2.o, just like Google.com is the front door to the Internet.

Like FACEBOOK, Linked.in or any other social network? Then create one, specifically designed for a corporate environment, that hundreds of people will use.

Using Drupal, integrated with our LDAP corporate directory, and by hacking existing Drupal modules or completely creating new ones, develop a corporate social network. Create features for employees to post their resumes and experience, display received awards and honors, connect with fellow co-workers, get recommendations for assignments, list current projects and customers.

Create mashups with web applications for employees to post their videos from YouTube, photos from Flickr, presentations from slideshare.net, maps from Google or Yahoo, and events from Upcoming. Create mashups with business applications for employees to show their project’s status from the EPM, sales bookings and funnel from the CRM and new content from their wikis. Create an application that strengthens the bonds between colleagues and bosses, shortens geographical distances and makes friends in the workplace.

More than a technology project, this is a social engineering project to sprout massive collaboration, and harness the wisdom of a crowd of more than 130 people, to create a corporate reference of everything that can be documented in a professional services company such as ours.

Create and implement a strategy that motivates every employee of every department to give up a small bit of free time to become involved in a collective effort to document an entire company. This means documenting, in one central reference, every process, every procedure, every regulation, our mission, our history, our goals, and every other piece of factual information that may already exists in files, or worse, exists only in people’s heads.
