Dixons Retail is one of Europe\u2019s largest specialist electrical retailing and services companies. Its brands include Currys and PC World in the UK and Ireland, as well as many others across Europe. Employing approximately 30,000 people in ten countries, the organization welcomes more than 100 million customers every year online and in over 900 Dixons Group stores.<\/b><\/div>\n
Headquartered in Hemel Hempstead in the UK, Dixons\u2019 geographical scope is far reaching, spanning not just Europe where its stores are based, but also Hong Kong where its sourcing office is located. The organization\u2019s aim is to \u2018bring the latest technology at the best prices to customers combined with great advice and after sales care,\u2019 and so in order to continue to deliver on this vision, the company looked at how it could improve its internal collaboration.<\/div>\n
\u201cWe decided to modernize the back-end processes of the business to allow us to work more efficiently, which will ultimately enable us to provide better services to our customers in stores,\u201d explains Steve Foster, business technology manager for corporate and Knowhow solutions at Dixons Retail. \u201cOur first challenge was to consider how we could move everyone onto one single e-mail platform across the geographies and departments, to help us communicate and collaborate more efficiently. An obvious next step was other ways we collaborated, including how we used our intranet.\u201d<\/div>\n
Foster and his team wanted to move to Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft worked closely with the organization to plan the next steps. Late in 2013 Microsoft introduced Foster to OSC, a cloud and productivity solutions provider that specializes in the development of innovative intranets using Office 365 and SharePoint. \u201cDixons has a very clear vision of what they want to do and recognizes that improving internal processes is a means to that end,\u201d says Chris Barnard, director of business development, Worldwide Retail, at Microsoft. \u201cOSC offers a modern, agile solution for retailers looking to transform how they collaborate with store and headquarter employees. And it\u2019s always great to see companies investing in their employees!\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cI spent some time with OSC consultants and was impressed with their ability to demonstrate how their solutions meet the challenges of retailers,\u201d says Foster. \u201cThe solution looked simple, modern and intuitive \u2013 just what we were looking for.\u201d<\/div>\n
In February 2014, OSC began a \u2018discovery phase\u2019 at Dixons, which allowed employees to review what they liked and what they didn\u2019t like about their current intranet and what they would like to see in a new one. Ali Sanaei, principal consultant at OSC, helped to run approximately 20 workshops with Dixons\u2019 employees from different departments and teams to find out more about how they worked and what they wanted in a new system. \u201cWe looked at the technology that Dixons had in place at that time, but the discovery phase also allowed us to learn about the organization\u2019s branding and guidelines to ensure that we could develop a solution that was the perfect fit,\u201d he reflects. \u201cIt was also important to us that we learnt about Dixons\u2019 culture and an essential part of the encouraged blue-sky thinking from Dixons\u2019 employees to really find out what they wanted in the future.\u201d<\/div>\n
But the discovery phase was equally beneficial for Dixons. \u201cIt meant we were able to find out how each division functioned and it also meant that people outside of the IT department had the opportunity to influence what our new system would be like,\u201d says Foster.<\/div>\n
Once OSC had captured all of that information, its consultants were in a good position to know how they could help Dixons transform its internal communication and collaboration, and Foster requested them to implement mini-projects that would really test if OSC was up to the challenge. The four projects are: a customer plan site; a finance team site; a people directory; and a refreshed Office 365 landing page.<\/div>\n

Customer plan site<\/b><\/p>\n

This acts as an information site for the customer plan project team within Dixons. It gives everyone access to key information such as contacts, news and feedback. \u201cThis was the first project to go live and we\u2019ve already had positive feedback from users,\u201d says Foster.<\/div>\n

Finance team site<\/b><\/p>\n

Similarly, OSC built a site for Dixons\u2019 internal finance team, allowing members of that department to have access to information quickly. \u201cThis is undoubtedly something we will roll out across other departments to enable people to work better together,\u201d says Foster. \u201cThe site is now ready to use and we\u2019re currently building up the content to put on it.\u201d<\/div>\n

People directory<\/b><\/p>\n

Dixons\u2019 employees were previously relying on Lotus Notes to search for internal contacts, and so OSC has developed a directory that enables thousands of Dixons\u2019 employees to search easier and much faster. \u201cThis is due to go live very shortly, which we\u2019re looking forward to \u2013 it\u2019s going to be a real help to us and change the way we work,\u201d says Foster.<\/div>\n

Refreshed landing page<\/b><\/p>\n

Dixons was using the temporary landing page in Office 365 for its intranet. Foster and his team had made developments but they wanted changes to be made to make it easier to use without confusing users ahead of the possible implementation of a new intranet. OSC has refreshed the landing page and made it easier to use with a modern UI.<\/div>\n
OSC is also currently working with Dixons to develop a number of new forms to help streamline what is currently an outdated workflow application based on Lotus Notes. \u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to revamping this and moving it to SharePoint, which will transform a process that impacts most people at Dixons,\u201d adds Foster. The priority for Dixons is to modernize its processes and to enable employees to work better and collaborate more easily. This has meant migrating from Lotus Notes in many cases and making the sites more user friendly. \u201cAll of our projects use a modern UI design, offering a great user experience for Dixons\u2019 employees,\u201d says Sanaei.<\/div>\n
LiveTiles, the user interface tool that sits on top of Office 365, has been a key element to the projects\u2019 success. It helped OSC make changes when the project was in its final testing phase \u2013 modifications are commonplace after any implementation \u2013 and the use of LiveTiles meant that those changes were made quickly. \u201cIf I had a request e-mailed to me, I was able to make that change straight away and reply within minutes confirming its completion, says Sanaei. \u201cIt made implementing the UI a lot easier and faster and also meant we\u2019re able to roll out a consistent UI across the different sites. But it also means users themselves are able to make some changes.\u201d<\/div>\n
And because the projects use Office 365 and SharePoint online, OSC has even been able to collaborate more easily itself, spanning offices that are located in four different continents, allowing them to make the changes that Dixons has needed when they are needed. Similarly, OSC also used Microsoft Lync to regularly keep in touch with Dixons\u2019 stakeholders. Where previously consultants would have to request a meeting or rely on calls to discuss matters on the project, Lync has enabled the organizations to seamlessly work together faster and more efficiently, no matter where they are located.<\/div>\n
So, has OSC passed the test? \u201cI was really impressed with the discovery phase, but I wanted to see what they were capable of. And the implementations have been a real success,\u201d says Foster. \u201cI\u2019ve also received positive feedback from each of the business teams that have worked with OSC on these projects. They\u2019re finding the sites really easy to use. While users won\u2019t need much training to get up and running on the new sites, the next step is to build up all the content correctly.\u201d<\/div>\n
Since the success of these projects, Dixons is now discussing the replacement of its core intranet. \u201cWe hope that OSC will guide us over the next 12 months to help us become self-sufficient, and then remain a partner for when we need their help and advice in the future,\u201d he says. \u201cOnce we feel like we have our back-end systems working the way we want them, then we will be able to look at how we can improve store collaboration too.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cChange in customer behavior forces a change in many retailers\u2019 business models. Today\u2019s empowered and connected consumers are creating a sense of urgency for retailers to modernize the store experience, deliver seamless experiences, and engage and delight with outstanding customer service that uses the best of online data richness with the best of human interaction,\u201d says Tracy Issel, general manager, Worldwide Retail, at Microsoft. \u201cIt\u2019s exciting to see Dixons enjoy the benefits of OSC\u2019s repeatable approach to quickly realize the benefits for their employees. The ability to engage directly with store employees and directly influence the consumer shopping experience can be transformational.\u201d<\/div>\n
Foster expects the technology to really help with future potential expansions of the business, while also helping with his vision of a change in culture. \u201cWe\u2019re moving away from a world that revolves around having meetings and using pens and paper, to one that\u2019s based on a modern collaboration platform that means it doesn\u2019t matter where you\u2019re based in the world \u2013 you can still work on the same document. It\u2019s a very exciting time for us and there\u2019s a real opportunity to create a new way of working.\u201d<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
