In this interview, we spoke to Laing O’Rourke’s Digital Communications Manager, Kerri Warner, and Group Human Capital & Corporate Affairs Director, Josh Murray.
We discussed their vision for a central, digitalised hub to drive collaboration across the global business and support their communications needs alongside their specialised Line-of-Business (LOB) systems.
"The long-standing relationship with ClearPeople has evolved over the years to what is now a strong collaborative partnership. Combining Laing O’Rourke’s ambition to be a digital leader in the construction industry with ClearPeople’s IP, skills and expertise in the Microsoft’s cloud stack has proven to be a powerful mix. We are experiencing tangible outcomes and very positive feedback from across the business. What has been key is the ability to deliver complex features and functionality through a simple and engaging user experience that makes sense to our users wherever they are, in the office, on-site or in a first line worker role. One of the obvious benefits of the investments we have made is that we are far better placed to deliver outstanding outcomes for our customers."
