Internal communications and collaboration

Microsoft 365: SharePoint Online and Viva Engage

Transform your internal communications

 

Would you like to enhance internal communications using your existing Microsoft 365 licence?


Employees of many organisations are increasingly returning to the office. In Europe, the rate of office occupancy rose from 43% (June 2022) to 55% (February 2023) — but still lags behind the pre-pandemic rate of 70%. In this hybrid environment, employees need access to the information and data they need to do their jobs, wherever they're working.

Would you like to:

  • Ensure every employee has access to all the information they need, no matter where they work?
  • Promote information exchange and dialogue among your employees?

If you already use Microsoft 365, you already have the tools you need to do this:



For internal communications, you can build a powerful, flexible and user-friendly central hub (or intranet) using SharePoint Online. 


For increased internal collaboration and interactivity, you can add Viva Engage as an internal social network. 

Building an intranet using SharePoint Online


With Microsoft 365’s SharePoint Online, you can securely store all your organisation's documents online – making them easy to find and access, even via mobile devices. You can also extend the use of SharePoint Online to create an intranet. 

Just like large enterprises, SMBs can gain valuable operational benefits from using SharePoint Online as an intranet that enables more effective internal communications.

Setting up and maintaining an intranet with SharePoint Online is quite straightforward. We'll show you how.
