Client

Shell International is a group of energy and petrochemical companies with over 112,000 staff operating in more than 140 countries and territories, making effective global communication a high priority. One of the group’s many initiatives is its LiveWIRE programme, which encourages young entrepreneurs to submit ideas and attract sponsorship

Objective

Shell was looking for an effective way to communicate with its LiveWIRE organisers and coordinate their work. The company also needed to establish a way to communicate quickly and effectively with its global audience

Solution

Pod1 came up with a two-dimensional approach to the challenge. The first step involved creating an on-brand website that is now managed entirely by the client and clearly communicates all the benefits of the LiveWIRE programme to its users. Secondly, Pod1 designed and developed an intranet so that LiveWIRE managers across the world could enjoy easy online collaboration and communication. The diverse global user base meant usability and accessibility were vital and, as well as addressing these concerns, Pod1 equipped the site with a host of online business tools to optimise sophisticated document management and storage capabilities

Result

Thanks to Pod1 conceiving and creating a globally accessible and effective website and intranet, all the aims of the brief were met with complete satisfaction from the client.

“I have thoroughly enjoyed working on the Shell LiveWIRE project. Thank you all so much for the effort you have put in. Your hard work has really paid off.”
