Säffle municipality's new intranet focuses on collaboration

In addition to the social functions on Säffle municipality's intranet, the external channels also play a central role on the intranet. There is a link to the municipality's social media, which means that the Facebook feed appears on the start page. There is also the possibility to add Instagram feeds per administration on different pages.

– We have put a lot of effort into social functions and it seems to be appreciated. I have received a very good reception and positive reactions during the demos, so there are a lot of expectations in the air," says Johan Österman, Communications Officer, Säffle Municipality.

Simple and easily accessible with icons

Säffle municipality has chosen to make a special solution in the page structure of the intranet, in the layout of the so-called review pages. They contain automatic listings of content that is further down in the structure, so that users can easily find what they are looking for.

Launching the new intranet internally with a video

Ingemar Rosén, Director of the municipality, and Annette Sörensen, Head of Human Resources, recognise the importance of involving all employees and managers in the use of the new intranet. Therefore, the municipality has produced a film for the launch that has been distributed in the organisation.

Ingemar and Annette talk about the intranet as an effective and good tool for developing work within each organisation, but also that it is now easier to develop work between departments. The intranet is also of great importance for the development of Säffle municipality as an organisation, says Ingemar.
