This research-driven company discovers, develops and markets biopharmaceuticals and small-molecule drugs. It provides vital products to people in more than 170 countries.
With thousands of employees around the world, including scientists and manufacturing specialists in laboratories as well as workers in warehouses, the company needed a better way to engage a dispersed workforce. Many of these employees had no access to corporate email and rarely, if ever, sat at a desk. It was critical the company implement a communication platform designed for mobile devices – delivering timely information to the right employee at the right time.
Struggling With Outdated Communication Systems
The internal communication team lacked an easy way to deliver messages, news and internal documents directly to employees on their mobile devices. Legacy systems simply weren't designed for the mobile experience.
The company needed to update its communication strategy in other ways as well. For instance, communicators didn't have the capability to segment employees based on location and department. So, it was impossible to deliver relevant content for each business group in a micro-targeted fashion. The company’s executive team wanted to reach employees with videos. Yet there was no way to easily record and deliver them. Finally, the company wanted to give new employees the ability to register and complete the onboarding program solely through the mobile experience.
Simply put, the company was thwarted by existing tools that weren’t up to the modern communication standards that employees have come to expect in their personal lives.
Problems To Solve:
- No way of reaching employees on their mobile devices
- Unable to segment employees and deliver relevant content
- Difficult process to deliver messages with internal documents
- Couldn't easily record and deliver videos
- Outdated employee onboarding experience
