Noticeboards: The Electronic Alternative

Over the past few months, Cordovan UK have been developing a new product aimed at facilitating more effective communications in large organisations. Despite computer terminals being at an all time high within major organisations, intranet usage often tops out at 5% of staff.

Added to this, many staff in organisations may not have any access to the intranet at all.

  • What about those people who work in manufacturing units?
  • What about those who spend most of their time 'on the road'?

Not everyone has a laptop and 3G data connection!

A mockup of LiveNotice

Paper noticeboards are notoriously difficult to organise when an organisation has tens, if not hundreds (or thousands) of sites.

Cordovan's answer to this is 'LiveNotice', a simple electronic alternative which can be administered from a single desktop if needed. Check it out. It works by displaying notices via a series of networked LCD screens.

Very shortly, it will be possible for staff to interact directly with the noticeboard through text messaging on mobile phones. Given that 'staff ads' are an inherent part of the screen property, this is likely to be an attractive feature!
