Interliant's Lotus-Based INIT Team Offering Creates
Effective Teamwork Environment For Britannia Airlines
Interliant Inc. (NASDAQ:INIT), a leading provider
of managed infrastructure solutions, today announced an agreement
with Britannia Airways, one of the oldest continuous names in British
airline history, to implement and host a dedicated INIT Team solution
in Interliant's UK data center. The Interliant managed solution,
which ran as a pilot project for six months before the current
contract was finalized, is designed to enable effective project
management and communication among different business units within
Britannia Airways.
Interliant's unique INIT Team solution leverages the base
technology of Lotus QuickPlace 2.0, Lotus' revolutionary new
collaboration tool that enables the instant creation of a shared team
workspace on the Web. The INIT Team solution enhances and extends the
QuickPlace software with additional services and functionality. This
hosted offering is designed to provide a collaborative environment
that is customized for the needs of different types of teams and can
be managed directly by end users, without the involvement of IT
staff. INIT Team also can be integrated into existing corporate
intranets and extranets.
"The pilot phase confirmed that INIT Team is a cost effective
tool," explained Iain Andrew, IT Director, Britannia Airways. "The
creation of an instantly accessible shared teamwork environment for
projects across the entire organization has proved essential in
effectively managing internal projects. In addition, we are able to
include people from outside the organization without compromising on
security or functionality. Interliant is providing set up, data
backup, monitoring and high-speed access, and I am confident that its
secure hosting capabilities will offer us the best possible
collaborative solution for our needs."
"Interliant is uniquely positioned to bring the advantages of
collaborative software like Lotus QuickPlace to the market,"
commented Neil Turner, Managing Director, Interliant UK. "The INIT
Team solution we have implemented for Britannia Airways provides a
secure, dedicated, hosted environment that removes technical and
financial barriers to cross-organization implementation. Many
organizations are realizing the value of these collaborative
solutions and, in a competitive marketplace, Interliant is able to
provide the reliability and expertise that companies demand to
support these applications."
