CASE STUDY CLEVELAND POTASH UK
Industries:
Corporate
Product:
46” Interactive Touch Screens
Introduction:
Cleveland Potash is a mining company, owned by Israeli based ICL Fertilisers. Given the importance of health and safety in their workplace, the initial requirement was for a digital communication solution that would enable the company to display up to date policy information to employees on a constant basis. The interactive sign includes all management rules and policies and was strongly promoted by the HR team.
As the sign build developed, the importance of displaying key performance indicators became a central requirement, such as how much product was mined in previous days and how much was shipped from the Tees Dock base. Although critical to the performance of the business, this up to date key information was previously not displayed automatically and openly. Both the attract loop and the central page of the sign display actual figures against target using a feed of data from a central company database.
Other content includes ‘instant messaging’ using the dedicated text area on the main page, live weather updates and unique pages for each building.
Cleveland Potash chose to install an estate of 46” interactive digital screens in various locations around their site, including the mine, port and management areas. All of the concept, graphic design, user interface of the site and functionality/user interface was designed by Beyond Digital.

CASE STUDY SWISSPORT UK
Industries:
Aviation
Product:
42” Interactive Touch Screens
Introduction:
Swissport communicated with their employees using traditional cork notice boards and management announcements. With increasing health and safety legislation and unionisation, there was an increasing need to formalise communication and prove that updates and policies were received by employees.
Swissport had developed an internal ‘Read and Sign’ system to provide formal documentation but needed to display this content as widely as possible.
As well as displaying ‘Read and Sign’ content, the digital screens also incorporate a wide range of content including a library of company documents, videos and corporate assets. Live feeds display weather, wind speed, wind direction and visibility.
Recognising the busy environment of the airport, Beyond Digital have designed animated content for the attract loop and main page of the sign to engage attention. In order to discuss health and safety incidents, an interactive map of the airport site has been specifically drawn to show the location and implication of incidents.

We developed a digital solution that incorporates 23” interactive screens within a specially designed ‘tea table’. Sales advisors encourage use of the screens whilst discussing the heritage of the brand.

CASE STUDY THE MARRIOTT USA
Industries:
Hotel Hospitality
Product:
42” Interactive Touch Screens
Introduction:
The Marriott ‘Go Board’ is a virtual concierge system installed in thousands of Marriott Courtyards around the world. Marriott Courtyard is their budget range of hotels where there is no resident concierge and reception staff are limited. The locations are often at airports or on the side of motorways, where guests are often travelling and arrive at any time of the day.
The principle behind the Go Board is to provide a huge range of instant information to guests, effectively replacing the concierge service at a more affordable rate. Most of the information displayed uses live data feeds such as flight boards, news and weather. There is also a local map where guests can access directions to a range of local services. The map plots the route and a QR code can be downloaded to make this information mobile.
The sign also includes a disability button that when pressed, allows the full sign to be controlled at the base of the sign. This is an important function of publicly accessible signs.

CASE STUDY POKERSTARS & FULL TILT
Industries:
Corporate
Product:
42” Interactive Touch Screens
Introduction:
PokerStars is the largest online poker card room company in the world with over 50 million registered players. PokerStars employs over 2,000 members of staff in offices in the Isle of Man, Costa Rica, Sydney and London.
PokerStars traditionally communicated with its employees using a monthly e-magazine and intranet site. Its challenge was how to best communicate the vast amount of daily information relating to: - Employee rewards- Policy changes- Management information- Training courses- Live performance information
It was also looking for a flexible and future-proofed solution that would enable communication with different audiences as required. This was initially envisaged to extend to visiting customers and VIP’s.
Functionality:
Under the advice and full consultation of Beyond Digital, PokerStars invested in a centrally managed content solution, with full creative services and a network of 46” commercial TV screens. The screens were installed in carefully selected locations recommended by Beyond Digital to ensure maximum impact for both employees and visitors alike. To minimise disruption, the system was installed over a weekend out of normal office hours.
Poker Stars required a content system that could be installed onto a secure and complex IT network. It was also essential that content could be published onto any screen in any office location globally. The content requirement was diverse and includes;
- Live tournament information- News- Weather alerts- TV campaigns- Employee communications- Benefits

Proven Effectiveness of Employee Communications
The new digital communication system was initially deployed at the Head Office in the Isle of Man. In order to justify further expansion, the system needed to prove its effectiveness and commercial benefit. The challenge was to find a tangible metric to use as a basis of measurement of corporate messaging.
The Metric – Employee Rewards
PokerStars runs a rewards portal for its employees which offers discounts in third party retail outlets. Uptake of these offers was selected as the most effective way to measure the effectiveness.
The Tests
Over a period of three months, PokerStars used the digital screens in the Isle of Man to display weekly offers to raise awareness of the rewards portal. Two tests were carried out to compare;
1) Uptake vs London, (where no digital screens were installed)2) Uptake vs previous months in the Isle of Man, (before digital screens were installed)
