You've got SharePoint and you've got Office 365 but without a modern intranet and digital workplace tying everything together, you are unlikely to see a big uplift in collaboration, communication and the digitisation of business processes. This is where we can help. Our approach blends bottom-up user research, top down stakeholder needs analysis and digital workplace best practice to define your intranet requirements. Then our team of Microsoft certified developers and Office 365 consultants can pull everything together to deliver your intranet, ready to go live. We can help with the softer aspects too, like governance, adoption, content strategy and training.
