Provoke took home top honours in Microsoft’s partner awards last week for the MOSS based intranet developed for the Ministry of Transport. The intranet won both the Business Productivity Solution award as well as the overall Partner Solution of the Year award that was decided from winners of all 12 categories.

The first version of the intranet developed on the Beta 2 version of MOSS has already undergone a second phase of development, and the alerts, announcements and noticeboards on the site are now used by staff as an alternative to email. Some of the other cool features are the heavy use of content tagging to drive navigation and search, SilverLight integration for dynamic content, and My Sites for staff to save and share information.
