Business Challenge
-
Vision Eye Institute (VEI), Australia’s leading provider of ophthalmology (surgery regarding the eye), wanted to upgrade their existing intranet “InVision”, as 80% of their users were not engaging with their existing platform
-
They wanted to increase staff engagement and communication, and allow for ease-of-access to valuable content across their national offices
-
They sought to make 6 key improvements: consistency & standardisation, efficiency, communication & unity, security, quality of service and staff engagement & empowerment
Results
-
The implementation of a new version of SharePoint has enabled VEI to easily keep content up-to-date, a key factor in the effectiveness of an engaging intranet
-
A centralised portal allows for consistency and standardisation across the business
-
Staff across the business have access to consistent information, brand awareness has increased, and staff are using the intranet as their first point of call for important information
-
Cross national project collaboration has improved staff engagement, and feedback on the overall user experience is positive
Solution & Approach
-
Through collaborative workshops, Solentive created an initial site design and information architecture, that would support VEI’s objectives
-
A clearly defined data migration approach removed the risk of lost data, and allowed the Vision Eye Institute to refine their existing sites and web parts
-
An iterative process kept VEI informed throughout regular progress previews and training sessions, to enable VEI to own the content creation and management process
-
Solentive provides ongoing periodic support to empower VEI to take ownership of the intranet, whilst still obtaining support on-demand and as needed
