Case Study: Day & Zimmermann achieves a 70% reduction in newsletter creation time and boosts employee engagement with Simpplr

Day & Zimmermann Boosts Employee Engagement and Communications Efficiency

Day & Zimmermann, a nearly 125-year-old engineering, construction, security and staffing firm with thousands of office and field employees, struggled to keep its dispersed workforce informed and engaged using outdated tools like SharePoint and inconsistent email distributions. The resulting content silos, time-consuming newsletter production, and disconnected employees threatened efficiency and retention, so the company sought a modern intranet solution from Simpplr.

Simpplr’s modern intranet platform centralized communications, provided a branded mobile app, simplified content creation and automated content reviews, enabling faster, more accessible updates for all employees. As a result, Day & Zimmermann cut newsletter creation time by 70% (from about 30 hours to under 6 hours per week) and improved engagement and enablement scores in 8 of 9 critical areas, boosting retention signals and overall communication efficiency.
