Case Study: BigMat boosts cooperative training and skills development with Beedeez

How do learners train in a cooperative model like BigMat?

BigMat, a cooperative of 92 independent building materials retailers with 320 locations, faced the challenge of continuously training its widespread and diverse sales force. The company needed to upskill employees on everything from customer reception and sales techniques to complex regulatory and regional differences. To address this, BigMat partnered with the vendor Beedeez to implement its mobile learning platform.

Using the Beedeez platform, managers like Sébastien could identify training needs in real time and assign tailored courses, while employees like Micheline could easily consolidate their technical knowledge. The solution fostered a cooperative model of learning across the entire retail network. The results were highly positive, with the platform logging 28,633 minutes of use and an 85% completion rate across over 700 training modules, leading to more efficient teams and improved agency performance.
