The Task
Our task was to create a new intranet for Amrop. Their existing intranet was a Drupal platform, maintained by an external development company. The platform was outdated, unresponsive on mobile, and needed an uplift. Furthermore, the overall company engagement was poor. Amrop was looking for a cloud-based solution that was both intuitive and non-technical from a content management perspective.
The Strategy
We held initial meetings to develop an understanding of the solution's complex nature and to provide insight into the culture of the business. With a plethora of notes taken, we then set about creating the site structure around a well-defined design brief based on Amrop's global identity.
We facilitated Amrop's work with ANDI by producing bespoke widgets and then implementing unique features into the site that made the user's experience smoother and faster.
ANDI will play a major factor in boosting communications.
The new ANDI digital workplace solution will play a major factor in boosting the flow of cross-border business, closer working relationships between teams in different countries and communications.

The Challenges
This project involved some detailed and complex challenges. The new intranet needed to improve collaboration and knowledge sharing for all Amrop's partner firms and stand up to the large scale of the company, which has 73 offices in 47 countries. ANDI also needed to reflect a significant step forward for the company, showing the board of Directors a return on investment and a return on objectives.
The Results
The intranet delivered on all Amrop's requirements. More so with the additional functionality and customisable elements proving invaluable to the business. Amrop, as a global partnership community, has seen increased engagement across the community due to the new ANDI solution.
