Intranet Case Study

Giles Insurance SharePoint Intranet

Giles Insurance Brokers Ltd is one of the top independent insurance brokers in the UK. The group employs more than 1000 employees and places in excess of £300 million premium annually.

Giles contacted Cyan Shiner and Krome to give assistance and advice in building their corporate intranet. A number of options were explored including WordPress before Giles finally settled with SharePoint as they felt this offered the best out of the box feature set and integration with their current Microsoft server setup and user database.

We provided a custom built SharePoint theme matching and enhancing the designs provided by their own brand design agency, balancing their own design direction with the functional requirements of a SharePoint build. We also delivered many custom built components to add to the base functionality delivered by the standard SharePoint installation.

We were very happy with the SharePoint work provided by Cyan Shiner and Krome and would readily recommend their services. Their staff were extremely responsive to requests and able to meet tight and changing deadlines, they advised us of the capabilities of the product and helped us create a custom template which matched our designs – they also provided custom SharePoint components to extend the out of the box functionality of the product and meet our exact requirements. We now have an intranet which we are very happy with and which fulfils all our needs and expectations.
