Case Study: Carhartt achieves a more agile, collaborative workplace with Microsoft Corporation Office 365

Carhartt building a durable agile workplace with Office 365

Carhartt, the workwear company with 4,000 employees across the U.S., Mexico, Canada, and Europe, needed a way to preserve its close, collaborative culture while supporting a distributed workforce. The company turned to Microsoft Corporation and Office 365, along with services like Skype for Business Online, OneDrive for Business, and Planner, to improve communication, reduce reliance on email attachments, and help teams work from the latest shared documents.

Microsoft Corporation implemented Office 365 and related cloud tools to enable video collaboration, document coauthoring, data sharing, and analytics through Power BI and Azure. The results included faster teamwork across geographies, real-time access to sales data, and stronger cross-functional collaboration; Carhartt reported that in one recent two-week period, it received no internal email attachments at all, and the cloud also reduced infrastructure burden while improving security and IT focus.
