Case Study: Future State achieves 25% increase in communications efficiency and faster onboarding with Simpplr

Future State upgrades its employee communication practices with Simpplr

Future State, a 100-person management consulting firm headquartered in Oakland, CA, struggled with fragmented employee communications — no intranet, multiple disjointed apps, and 98% of staff working remotely — which made onboarding, collaboration, and knowledge transfer slow and difficult. To address this, Future State selected Simpplr’s digital workplace platform (deployed as “The Hub”) for its ease of use, rapid deployment, and integrations with systems like Salesforce, Box, and OneLogin.

Simpplr implemented The Hub in eight weeks, consolidating content and integrating third‑party apps so employees could find HR policies, project history, and collaboration tools in one place; more than 85% of employees now log in monthly and the platform is maintained by one part‑time administrator. Simpplr’s solution preserved institutional knowledge, strengthened community through employee-driven groups, and delivered measurable impact — including a 25% increase in communications team efficiency and faster consultant ramp‑up.
