Bailey Partnership’s Use of Steegle.One Tools
Transforming Internal Communications and Safety with Steegle.One Intranet Solution
Company Overview
Bailey Partnership, a rapidly growing multidisciplinary consultancy in the UK, specializes in engineering, surveying, and various technical services. With expansion across 9 offices in the UK and now looking to grow internationally, they required an efficient system for managing internal communication, tracking employee locations, and fostering a sense of community within their team. The firm chose Steegle’s People and News bundle to address these needs.
Challenges
Sophisticated and Rapid Growth: As Bailey Partnership expanded quickly, managing communication across diverse and geographically dispersed teams became increasingly complex.
Employee Safety: Ensuring the safety of employees working in hazardous locations, such as high buildings or construction sites, was a priority. It was crucial for administrative staff to verify that these employees returned to the home base safely at the end of the day.
Team Recognition and Engagement: With a growing number of employees, it was important to put faces to names, understand individual skills, hobbies, and interests, and enhance personal connections within the team.
Solution
Bailey Partnership implemented Steegle.One tools within their Google Workspace to create a cohesive, secure, and efficient intranet solution.
Steegle People
Employee Directory: This feature provided a comprehensive directory where employees could find detailed profiles, including photos, job roles, locations, and contact information.
Location Tracking: Enabled tracking of employee check-ins and check-outs, particularly useful for monitoring those in hazardous work environments to ensure their safety.
Personal Profiles: Allowed employees to share their hobbies and interests, helping to foster a more engaging and connected workplace culture.
Steegle News
Centralized News Portal: A single platform for all company news, project updates, and announcements, ensuring consistent and timely communication across the organization
Search and Filter Options: Enhanced search functionality allowed employees to quickly find relevant news articles and updates, improving access to information.
Outcome
The integration of Steegle People and News significantly benefited Bailey Partnership:
Enhanced Communication: The centralized news portal and detailed employee directory streamlined communication, ensuring that important updates reached all employees effectively.
Improved Safety Management: Real-time location tracking of employees in hazardous areas ensured their safety, providing peace of mind for both the employees and the administrative staff.
Stronger Team Connections: The ability to share personal profiles with hobbies and interests helped build stronger relationships within the team, fostering a more collaborative and engaging work environment.
