About the project

FlexMirror Group needed a unified intranet to connect partners worldwide, simplify collaboration, and centralize brand resources and project reporting. The new platform enables all partners to submit projects, share materials, and access HQ-provided templates and data dashboards securely through Microsoft 365.

Technology

  • Microsoft 365
  • SharePoint Online
  • Power BI
  • Microsoft Forms
  • Power Automate

Services

  • SharePoint development
  • Microsoft 365 integration
  • UX and content structure design
  • Partner training and onboarding
  • Dashboard implementation (Power BI)

Industry

  • Architecture
  • Interior design
  • Manufacturing

The challenge

FlexMirror operated across more than a dozen partner regions, each managing information independently. The lack of a shared intranet caused delays, inconsistent communication, and outdated materials circulating across teams. The company needed a single digital workspace that would align partners globally — combining project sharing, brand consistency, and performance tracking in one environment.

Objectives

#1

Create a secure intranet accessible to all partners.

#2

Centralize projects, templates, and brand materials.

#3

Create a secure intranet accessible to all partners.

How did we do it?
