Gartner believes the financial impact of communication overload is in excess of £20M per annum for an organization with 10,000 knowledge workers. Organisations communicate with their employees via email, SMS, Intranet and contact centres. These channels of communication have become so overburdened that they are no longer effective, or they are so expensive to be prohibitive. Users have to search for information on the Intranet, in their emails, or go through time consuming telephone calls.
LNP V3.0 is a new approach in business to employee (B2E) and business to customer (B2C) communication that harnesses and manages all the best attributes of existing digital communication channels, but in addition delivers new high impact direct ‘push’ channels that can punch through the communication fog to employees’ desktops and/or handheld devices when really critical information needs to be delivered. Additionally, it provides a ‘closed loop’ system that confirms a message has been received and understood.
LNP V3.0 further extends the functionality of previous versions through enhanced scalability, centralised configuration and delivery management and an improved reporting, auditing and response mechanism. Enhanced multi-channel and device communication for “push” messaging extends the message delivery capability of the LNP to ensure that for information you ShouldKnow, LNP V3.0 delivers communication you can’t miss!
David Long, CEO of Skinkers commented “Skinkers has been working on the problem of communication overload for nearly five years, firstly by developing a new high impact communication channel which delivers desktop alerts and secondly by incorporating this into the LNP. I am delighted to announce the launch of LNP V3.0, which I believe is the first system that really delivers on the promise of enterprise communication management, and provides a scalable, robust and functionally rich technology for our customers, enabling them to effectively communicate with their audience.” A
Andrew Taylor, Head of Communications at Brewin Dolphin (the UK’s largest independent private client portfolio manager) said, “We chose Skinkers LNP because we wanted to radically improve the way we communicate with our employees. We are delighted with the capabilities of the product which enables us to deliver messages for business critical announcements and regulatory and important employee communications. It has also helped drive our employees towards making more use of the Intranet.”
LNP V3.0 features includes
- Scalability and performance: high speed delivery to tens of thousands of employees.
- Enterprise Message Manager capability (central configuration and delivery management): one place for the business to manage all communications.
- Email and BlackBerry channels: The LNP is the only platform to provide an audited PC and Mobile (BlackBerry) channel alongside email and SMS.
- Multiple time zone support.
