Employee Managed Platform

CRH World was a strategic project created with CRH’s global leadership.

The goal was to create a dedicated digital-first, employee-focused communication channel that captures the business's scale, ambition, and global success. An internal team would be established with the skills, expertise, and capabilities to deliver employees a continuous, innovative and insightful digital experience.

The results developed on the market-leading Progress Sitefinity DXP deliver employees with a real-time information resource, company-wide news, extensive video resources of case studies and interviews, and access to company and staff search tools. Corporate and executive communications are streamed live through a dedicated channel integrated into the portal.
