EDI Environmental Dynamics Inc. (EDI) is a Canadian environmental consulting firm that prioritizes practical solutions for living things and where they live. Their growing team of over 150 biologists, scientists, and planners work across six locations, with a diverse range of services catering to move Canadian industries.
However, EDI's dedication to on-the-ground environmental solutions have meant challenges in the digital realm. Their previous intranet solution, cobbled together with Google Sites and Google Currents, created silos and limited accessibility for their geographically dispersed workforce. And as their company doubled in size over a few years, they recognized the express need for an intranet to form a unified culture and identity.
As EDI flourished, their collaboration and communication tools needed to level up. Google Sites proved clunky for administrators, hindering information flow. Disparate offices and a growing seasonal workforce fostered "culture silos," diminishing the sense of a unified team.
Following a period of rapid expansion, EDI also needed a centralized hub and a way to onboard new employees efficiently. They sought an engaging, on-brand intranet that could bridge these communication gaps and cultivate a collaborative company culture.
Happeo provided the fertile ground EDI needed to cultivate a thriving digital environment. Here's how EDI utilizes Happeo:
Since embracing Happeo, EDI has seen significant results that they are committed to continuing to evolve. EDI has a 90% Monthly Active User rate, with 90% of employees actively engaged with the platform on at least a monthly basis. Beyond general engagement, Happeo Channels are used to support knowledge sharing across teams and segments, and each of those see 40-60% engagement, depending on the Channel.
Possibly the best part of the solution, EDI’s success with Happeo has just begun. The company sees their intranet as a journey that continually develops. They view Happeo as a strategic investment rather than a single technological transaction, and are committed to the platform through goal setting and special incentive programs.
Several factors cemented Happeo as the ideal solution for EDI:
EDI's success story exemplifies the power of effective communication in fostering a thriving organizational culture. Happeo provided technology for EDI to cultivate a collaborative and connected work environment, ensuring all employees – from seasoned biologists to new hires – can access the information and connections they need to make a positive impact on the environment.
