The snapshot

The Tom Tailor Group faced the complex task of merging two distinct brands, necessitating a focus on employee retention and collaboration.

The primary challenge involved reducing IT administrative overheads and enhancing mobility to support the successful integration of the merged entities.

Devoteam addressed these needs through a multi-stream approach, including cultural change planning, Office 365 cloud integration, intranet redesign, and the introduction of Skype for Business Online.
The challenge
The Tom Tailor Group has more than 1,200 stores in 21 countries and approximately 7,000 employees. At the time of the project, Tom Tailor was merging two big retail brands that were different in both clientele and employees.
Turning to Devoteam, there was a need for employee retention, mobility, as well as reducing IT administrative overheads. Overall, enhanced collaboration was essential for the success of the merge.
The solution
The Future Workplace project included five streams. Firstly, the planning of culture change, via the implementation concept for Yammer. Then followed Office 365 Cloud Integration within the existing IT infrastructure.
An intranet redesign, the introduction of Skype for Business Online and mail integrations allowed for increased employee mobility and support.
The better change
Seamlessly merged two distinct retail brands, enhancing overall employee collaboration and retention.
Achieved significant reductions in IT administrative overheads through strategic cloud integration
