Case Study: Connells Group unites 16,000 employees with Sorce intranet

Connells Group unifies 16,000 employees with Sorce and drives 200,000 monthly intranet log-ins

Connells Group, the UK's largest property services provider, faced a significant challenge following its acquisition of Countrywide: integrating 16,000 employees from over 1,200 branches into a single, unified entity. To break down silos and foster a sense of belonging, the company needed a central hub for communication and collaboration. They partnered with intranet vendor Sorce to implement their 'Engage' platform as the foundational solution.

Sorce delivered a consolidated intranet, 'Engage', which became the backbone for employee connection. The solution facilitated group-wide recognition programs, supported a new DE&I strategy with active networks, and enabled successful fundraising initiatives. The measurable impact was substantial, with monthly log-ins growing from 66,000 to over 200,000. The platform successfully nurtured a unified community, evidenced by over 250 pieces of recognition given and £50,000 raised for charity, which was matched by the company.
