IT consulting firm Devoteam has announced increased revenue and cost savings as a result of encouraging cross-departmental collaboration within the organisation.
Using internal social software platform Jive to integrate sales and marketing, Devoteam has managed to cut its deal cycle by one-third, as well as increase revenue by up to €5 million.
Antoine Colin de Verdière, mobility offer director at Devoteam, said: “It is not just the speed that has improved, but also the quality.
“We’re creating better proposals in a fraction of the time. With the improved information-sharing we get from Jive, we can better understand and respond to customer needs.”
This success is a great example of what can be achieved if greater sales and marketing alignment can be fostered in an organisation.
