INTRANET FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION
INDUSTRY

Laptop

Intranets are valuable tools for companies in the construction industry, offering a centralised hub for communication and productivity. In a field where projects are spread across multiple sites and teams often operate remotely, an intranet allows for seamless information sharing, ensuring everyone has access to the latest project updates, documents, and safety protocols.

Intranets can streamline communication in construction companies, reducing delays caused by miscommunication or missed emails as well as supporting collaboration and knowledge sharing. Employees can access training materials, share best practices, and troubleshoot challenges in real-time. This enhances workforce productivity and keeps teams aligned, regardless of location.

How organisations in the Construction
Industry Can Benefit from an Intranet

Laptop

A SharePoint intranet offers numerous benefits to construction companies facing challenges such as geographically distributed workers, high turnover and stringent compliance & safety requirements.

  1. Centralised Communication and Collaboration: For companies with geographically distributed teams, SharePoint acts as a centralised hub where employees can access resources, communicate, and collaborate in real-time, regardless of location. This helps ensure that everyone, whether on-site or remote, stays connected to the latest updates, company announcements, and project progress.
  2. Knowledge Management: High turnover can lead to knowledge loss. A SharePoint intranet mitigates this risk by acting as a knowledge repository where important documents, procedures, and institutional knowledge are stored and easily accessible. New employees can quickly onboard themselves by accessing training materials, company policies, and relevant information, reducing downtime and improving continuity.
  3. Compliance and Safety Management: For industries with strict compliance and safety standards, SharePoint’s document management features allow companies to store, track, and update safety protocols and regulatory documents. Version control and audit trails ensure that employees always have access to the most current policies, minimising compliance risks.
  4. Project Management: With high-risk projects, it’s crucial to manage tasks, deadlines, and accountability. SharePoint integrates with Microsoft Teams and other Office 365 tools to provide a cohesive platform for project management, enabling teams to coordinate on tasks, monitor progress, and share documents securely.
  5. Mobile Access: Since many construction workers aren’t sitting behind a desk most of the time, SharePoint’s mobile-friendly interface ensures they can access important documents, collaborate, and stay updated on projects from any device. This flexibility is vital for maintaining productivity while accommodating a dispersed and mobile workforce.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about intranets for the construction industry

1. Can the Injio intranet be accessed by remote or on-site construction workers?

Yes, Injio is fully responsive and can be accessed securely from a tablet or mobile phone anywhere with internet access. We are constantly working to improve the mobile user experience.

2. How easy is it to set up and manage a construction intranet? How long will it take?

The Injio process includes several workshops to guide your stakeholders through strategy, planning, site structure and design, as well as governance and ongoing management. We aim to empower your team to support the intranet ongoing, and structure it correctly to ensure it remains effective and scalable, with automations and integrations to increase productivity and ease of use. On average, our projects can run from 10 – 20 weeks from kick off to launch. The factor that has the greatest impact on timings is your ability to prepare intranet content and support effective internal decision making.

3. How intuitive is the platform for employees with varying technical skills?

We understand construction teams often have a range of digital skills. Injio intranet is designed to be user friendly and deliver a great user experience with intuitive navigation and enhanced search. No matter how your users like to find information, we design your intranet to find what they need with minimal clicks.

4. Can the intranet be customised to fit our specific needs, and will this incur additional costs?

As a pre-built intranet, or intranet in a box, Injio will deliver the fundamental functionality you require quickly and efficiently, leaving time and resources to focus on those areas that will best address your business needs. Whether this is particular attention to branding and design, tailored user journeys such as onboarding, integrations with industry or HR platforms or document management workflows, our expertise lies in identifying and supporting your key business drivers.

5. Can an intranet help with compliance and safety regulations in construction?

At the core of any compliance framework is an effective document management system. SharePoint’s robust capabilities allow you to store, organise, and control access to policies, procedures, and other critical documents. SharePoint intranets are also great for sharing your processes, policies, and procedures. With site pages, document libraries and tags, it’s simple for construction employees to find and use the information they need to follow safety and compliance guidelines.

6. What security protocols are in place to protect sensitive information stored on the intranet?

The Injio intranet is deployed directly into your SharePoint tenant, leveraging the robust security of Microsoft 365 and minimising exposure of your sensitive data. However while technology plays a crucial role in securing organisational assets, intranets support security in other ways. Creating a culture where employees are aware of security isn’t just a good idea; it’s essential for our strategy. By focusing on educating, engaging, and empowering our team through engaging intranet communications, we can reduce risks and strengthen our defense against cyber threats.
