The Ambition
A billion-dollar global life sciences player with thousands of employees spread across multiple geographies.
The Challenge
Their work required aggregating information from experts located around the globe, but their collaboration methods were outdated. Emailing documents and using traditional file shares was time-consuming, difficult to track, and actively deterred collaboration. This created information silos and made it difficult for their researchers to find and leverage collective knowledge.
The Architectural Blueprint
In a research-oriented industry, the client's ambition was to ensure their size and global spread did not become a detriment to their core R&D strength. They needed to find a way to capture the institutional knowledge of their various teams in a structured manner and make it easily accessible to drive research effectiveness.
Ambition, Realized
The new platform had a profound impact on their R&D effectiveness. The powerful search and collaboration tools broke down previous information silos, fostering a more dynamic and connected research environment. Employees could now collaborate in real time, co-authoring content and tapping into the knowledge of experts from across the globe. The solution provided a scalable and flexible platform that was also easy to administer and maintain.
