Key Challenges


Fragmented employee experience across various departments and systems.

Lack of a unified platform for accessing IT services and resources.

Need for a scalable solution to accommodate future departmental adoption.

Our Solution

Thirdera, a Cognizant company, implemented a comprehensive Employee Center solution, focusing on modernizing the existing employee experience portal capabilities beyond the current delivered landscape. Key attributes of the project included:

UX Research and Analysis
Our experts conducted in-depth UX research sessions to understand employee needs and pain points, ensuring the new platform would address real-world challenges.

Taxonomy Advisory

We developed a clear and intuitive taxonomy for services and resources, making it easy for employees to find what they need quickly.


 

Organizational Change Management

A robust OCM plan was created to ensure smooth adoption and maximize the impact of the new Employee Center portal.

 

Search Optimization

We fine-tuned the search functionality to deliver more relevant results, integrating both record producers and knowledge articles into a unified catalog.

   

The Result

Increased search efficiency
Users can find the correct knowledge articles more easily, thanks to the new organization of combined catalogs and structured information architecture. This has cut down the number of calls to the help desk by a reported 10% and has reduced the number of uncategorized tickets that the fulfillment team had to sort through.

Optimized IT operations
By empowering employees with self-service options, our client saw a substantial reduction in IT support tickets. This allows the IT team to focus on more strategic initiatives, improving overall operational efficiency.

 

Enhanced employee adoption and engagement
Taxonomy, coupled with contextual search, has enabled a better experience when searching for help by recommending knowledge articles to encourage self-service. Consequently, employees have reported higher satisfaction with IT services and a greater sense of empowerment in managing their work-related needs.
