companies”
“As we grow our business, geographical challenges presented themselves”
“I want to be able to speak to my colleagues in our Partner sites but can’t because they don’t have email”

Usage by Community
Contact Centres and Our Strategic Partners • Customer Operations are our biggest user base (14,000 people)

Groups Groups
Here at Sky we have a strong group culture with the majority of our posts being made in groups as opposed to profile pages. With 650 Private groups; collaboration if rife among
projects and teams and with just over 400 Public groups, the information is free flowing.
Going Mobile: Communities in the Field Our 4000+ field engineers exclusively use iPad mini’s as their main access to Chatter; a large number
of our population will never access Chatter via a browser. The iOS Chatter application is central to
everything our Home Service & Supply teams do, It is important that we can deliver them the best
technology possible
This brings our field staff in direct contact with the rest of our Customer Operations population for the
very first time.
Communities@Sky
Expanding our Chatter network bringing in our key suppliers – UTL.
Allowing us to create our own mini communities with in our Chatter
organisation.
It’s all about getting quick answers to simple questions, answers that we
didn’t have access to before.
Communities@Sky One of Sky’s favourite Chatter stories, where a Help Forum advisor found an unusual installation issue complete with illustrations from the customer. After
reaching out to the community, an ingenious solution was designed and tested by an engineer. More illustrations and photos followed to give our customer
the answer he needed.
Communities@Sky
A heart-warming example of what Chatter can achieve. An
engineer made an emotive plea to give a struggling, but loyal
family a little helping hand. Their son had been diagnosed with
leukaemia and money was tight…
Advisors offered what they could before the director of Home
Service and Supply stepped in to give the family a fantastic deal.
He even arranged for the job to be given back to Steven so he
could finish what he started, All this in under 12 hours on a
Friday night.
498 likes and 234 comments were a massive outpouring of joy,
bringing everyone together, showing how doing the right thing
can unite us all.

The Benefits of Communities
Return on Investment is notoriously tricky with social solutions; we like to think we see our key benefits in:
People Satisfaction
This is equally as important as customer satisfaction at Sky – We want people to live and breathe our values and believe in our brand. Chatter gives us
a real time temperature check insight into how our people are feeling – what’s exciting, frustrating or confusing them, this enables us to deal with issues
quickly and publicly creating a truly open and transparent culture.
Customer Resolution
We have a number of metrics at Sky measuring how effectively and efficiently we resolve customers queries. Chatter is an enabler to improving key
areas e.g. enhancing our knowledge bases as a result of Chatter conversations, reducing the time taken from query to resolution by allowing our people
to connect and work together.
Brand Awareness & Advocacy
By creating a space where everyone from our engineers to our strategic partners can
connect with our amazing content, talent and community initiatives everyone feels apart of Sky.
The Future @ Sky At Sky we are always evolving our business our Chatter communities really allows us to do this and to ensure that we are providing the best service in the country.
Bringing our Sky Business Team and their customers closer together – allowing them to connect in the community with real
time conversations. Allowing our Sky Business teams to manage their accounts on the go with Salesforce1.

The Warranty Group
Current Situation
• GOAL: Ultimately, we will want a single admin system, capable of handling any type of warranty product TWG sells, be it Auto, A&T, Specialty Services, Reinsurance, etc.
• Today, administrative functions distributed among many systems globally • No economy of scale • High support costs in some countries, such as US
– IT development staff – Hardware infrastructure – Licensing costs for the hardware and support software
• Each system has been mostly designed in a vacuum to support a specific client(s) or country • Data is distributed across multiple systems
– No easy or cost-effective way to consolidate or report on the data • Historical tendency to build IT systems rather than buy packaged solutions or platforms
– Most “innovative” ideas come from our clients, who got them from our competitors – High entry cost for cutting edge tools, such as mobile, tablet, social
Steps to the Cloud - How did we get there?
• 6 month self-contained projects • Value delivered at each project • Fixed, predictable cost and ROI for each project • Can be run in parallel • Investment capitalized every 6 months
• Business focused approach • Made IT taste & feel the business
• Key to success: integration
