Building the most advanced and secure corporate Intranet
PLMJ's new internal platform
PLMJ is Portugal's largest and most senior law firm. With 50 years of history and experience, PLMJ stands out as a full-service firm that offers a high degree of specialisation gained from working across industries, sectors and countries.
PLMJ approached Procimo with a unique challenge: to create a central and internal digital platform that is engaging to the employees, for them to be easily connected with the company life and their peers.
Helping fight the effects of distancing in a remote first environment, due to the pandemics, Procimo seated down with several stakeholders in order to understand how they work and what they would be doing inside a corporate intranet.
During this interviews and workshops, we found that the platform should display feeds, curated news in regard of the specialisation of each employee, a calendar with corporate events for them to join, places to absorb all the cultural information as well as the needed knowledge base, a media space to view photos, videos, podcasts and live streaming - a must for a company with such an active internal communication - and also good ways to find people, articles, documents, even employee benefits.
As a Design and Digital Experience Partner to PLMJ, we wanted to bringing this level of simplicity and familiarity front and center to the user journey, using the brand's elements. As we explored the design and visual language development, we wanted everything to be as human-first as possible, putting the people (employees) at the center of PLMJ's intranet digital rollout. Through modern and minimalist design elements, clean photographic styles, and a stellar balance of color and typographic usage, PLMJ is way more than a simple intranet and is ready to scale into the future.
