Case Study: a professional sports organization improves collaboration and productivity with Prolifics and IBM Connections

Professional Sports Organization - Customer Case Study

Prolifics worked with a professional sports organization that governs a North American league to address a challenge of internal collaboration. Although the organization used IBM WebSphere Portal to disseminate information, its central office and approximately 30 franchises lacked an effective way to share ideas and work together. After implementing IBM Connections to connect 1000 personnel, they needed an expert partner to maximize the platform's value.

The solution from Prolifics involved stabilizing the platform and developing numerous custom widgets to create a tailored social collaboration environment. This included a custom project management system integrated with community features for tracking requests and schedules. The results provided real-time visibility into operations for managers, enabled easier access to information for staff, and improved overall productivity and business performance across the entire organization.
