Case Study: ABB achieves global collaboration and collective knowledge to drive innovation with Microsoft SharePoint

ABB - Customer Case Study

ABB, a global leader in power and automation, needed to keep creativity and innovation thriving across roughly 125,000 employees in about 100 countries. The company’s CIO aimed to remove technological barriers and deliver an agile, mobile, always‑connected work environment that met security and compliance requirements.

ABB fully deployed Microsoft Office 365—including Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business, Skype for Business and Yammer—rolling out up to 5,000 seats per week. The cloud tools enabled seamless, business‑led collaboration, grassroots adoption via Yammer, rapid project setup with SharePoint Sites, a discoverable company knowledge base, and faster innovation that improved product delivery and customer satisfaction.
