Global access to our new intranet site is right around the corner, so prepare to say goodbye to IM-Inside, IM-Inside-World, EMEA-SharePoint or any other intranet portal you may be using. For the first time ever, all our countries and functions will have a new way to connect with teams locally and globally. Connect – our new Intranet – will provide all associates with one consistent, global platform to collaborate – from any of our locations, across all regions. Our goal is to provide an easier way for you and your colleagues to connect, keep you updated on company news on a real-time basis and empower you with a multitude of resources to be more efficient and productive. It also provides:
- Easy navigation to help you find the resources for any business or country function
- Quick links to commonly used Resources, Tools and Workflows for country processes
- Search functionality to rapidly locate the tools and data you need
- Collaboration Tools to empower you to connect and communicate with associates at any Ingram Micro location
Thousands of associates across the world are utilizing Connect, with 14 countries already live, including Argentina, Austria, Benelux, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, Peru, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and the U.S., in addition to our global corporate site. If you are not using it already, you will be soon, as we are on track to have all 34 country sites and 20 global sites live by the end of this year, with old sites ready to be decommissioned. Ingram Micro Connect has been a multi-year journey led by the Corporate Communications and Global IS teams and involving dedicated associates from all around the world. Our global corporate Connect site was launched in late 2016, and we have been rolling out new country sites throughout this year.
We are excited to be near completion of this engaging, interactive intranet for our associates. If you haven’t already, click here: http://ingrammicroconnect/ to take a look!
Associate Newsletter Moves to Connect!
Our November associate newsletter will be the last one you receive via email, as we too, are making the move to Connect! Now, you will be able to gain real-time access to all the company news, associate achievements, awards, philanthropic updates and more—plus a lot of photos and multimedia. The fun will begin after the New Year. If you have something you’d like considered for inclusion, please send your ideas to Corporate Communications. Photos, office news and videos are all welcome.
