Hi-Tech Communications System Piloted by Ernst & Young

As the city moves its internal communications systems into the 21st century, leading accountants Ernst & Young have launched revolutionary electronic noticeboards at their UK Head Office.

This follows a six-month pilot scheme at the company to improve communication to the firm's 900 employees. Whilst other organisations rely on internal emailing, this new system ensures widespread access to information without interrupting working hours. Business information, website recommendations and client details are displayed on the boards as well as more personal information such as staff birthdays, welcome messages to new employees and even marriage proposals!

Research carried out by manufacturers Esprit Communications show that 80% of staff preferred receiving messages via the noticeboards, particularly company news and general client information. Situated by the lifts, most employees found they had more time to read the notices and felt less "bombarded" than with general information via their PC's.
