in the Intranet
Why 4 out of 5 Intranet strategies fail
How to integrate Internal Communications
with Enterprise Social Networks (ESN)
Introduction to XCC - Web Content
Management Extension for IBM Connections

Why is it so difficult to integrate
Internal Communications
with Collaboration?

and
Collaboration
are soooo different

Web Content Management
Top-Down Communication
Social Software
Peer-To-Peer Collaboration
Stagnating  Rapidly Growing
Top Down / 1:n Communication  Bottom Up / n:n Communication
Approved Content / Binding Directives  Unofficial Content
Communication of Mgn. Ideas and Opinions  Formation of Ideas and Opinions
Important Information stays on Top  Popular Information stays on Top
Dedicated Authors with Intense Training  User Generated Content (without Training)
Pixel Perfect Layout  Form Follows Function
Set as default Homepage by Policy  Set as default Homepage by Employee
"Management’s Intranet”  "Employee’s Intranet”
Peer-To-Peer
Collaboration
Internal
Communi-
cations
The
Antipodes
of any
Intranet!

Intranet Strategies:
How to deal with Intranet pillars
Communication and Collaboration

Strategy 1:
Internal Communications Only
Inefficient collaboration with mail and file servers
All knowledge locked up in mail- and file-servers
No expert identification
No employee participation
No informal learning
Not appealing to young employees
accustomed to social media
Internal
Communi-
cations

Strategy 2:
Collaboration Only
Peer-To-Peer
Collaboration
Difficult to communicate the
organization’s priorities, strategy, values.
Difficulty to distinguish opinions and
ideas from binding / formal information
and directives.
Difficulty to identify important information.
No structure, everything sorted by last
update / popularity.

Strategy 3: Side-By-Side
Communication and Collaboration
Confusion and Governance Problems
How should managers communicate, as them-selves
or thru internal communications?
Where should employees look for content, in the Web
CMS based Intranet or in Social Software?
Attention and Content Fragmentation
Half of the employees visit Web CMS based Intranet
and ignore collaboration, the other half use collaboration
and ignores Internal Communications website.
Overlap, Redundancy and Inconsistency
Some content is inevitably going to be stored in both platforms.

Strategy 4: Enhance
Communication with Collaboration
Insufficient collaboration
Collaboration integrated into communication will never reach
critical mass to become self sustaining.
Intranet 2.0 based on user generated content / Enterprise 2.0
will not be achieved.
For enhanced Web CMS: Insufficient capabilities
Activity Stream / Social capabilities / Enterprise collaboration
missing.
For integrated platforms: Inconsistent UI
Users must leave communication homepage for collaboration.
Content fragmentation, overlap, redundancy and
inconsistency, governance problems.

Strategy 5: Integrate Communication
into Collaboration
No content overlap, redundancy,
inconsistency
Social software is more popular
with employees.
User generated content grows much faster
then centrally managed content.

What Do These People Have in Common ?
Traditional Manager Internal Communications Knowledge Worker
„I do not care much about social,
if something is really important it
will eventually show up in the
Web CMS based Intranet. Social
software lacks structure. The
Web CMS is too complicated to
publish my departments
information. I use mail for
collaboration.“
„Employees have to be aware of
our priorities, strategy, values
and important news. Everything
important must be published on
my platform. I do not care about
social as long as employees do
not use it as a cheap
propaganda platform. My content
needs to look great.“
„I do not care about the constant
self praise. I need Enterprise
Social Software to get my work
done and stay in touch with my
peers. Social is great to develop
ideas and exchange opinions.
My content must be created fast
and easy.“

They do not like to have separate platforms for
Internal Communications and Collaboration with
redundant and inconsistent content!

XCC - Web Content Management Extension
for IBM Connections
XCC is a lightweight Web CMS that integrates
into IBM Connections.
XCC leverages and utilizes IBM Connections
for authentication, authorization, content
storage, content approval, search, notification
etc.
XCC enhances IBM Connections with classic
Web Content Management capabilities and
thus integrates the two antipodes of an
intranet, i.e. peer-to-peer collaboration with
internal (top-down) communications.

1. Improve Intranet User Experience
2. Improve Internal Communications
3. Increase IBM Connections Adoption,
Usage and ROI
4. Reduce Complexity
5. Cut Costs
6. Accelerate Intranet Development
XCC – Key Advantages

1. Improve User Experience
Eliminate the dichotomy between top-down communication
and peer-to-peer collaboration and create a truly integrated
Social Intranet
Everything is in one place, employees do not need to choose
where to browse and search content
Communication and Collaboration are either on the same page
or available within one click
High degree of personalization
(Region, Location, Department, Branch etc.)
Excellent Mobile Experience
(integrated in Android and iOS Apps and responsive layout)

2. Improve Internal Communications
Internal Communications is made social, i.e. its content can be
liked and commented (unless commenting is disabled)
Content publishing, liking and commenting is integrated into
the Activity Stream and will be noticed by peers
Responsibility can be effectively delegated to line of business
Content masters can not only create and publish content but
curate content too (i.e. publish blog entries from employees on
landing pages / homepage)
Avoid content fragmentation, overlap, redundancy,
inconsistency and governance problems

3. Increase Connections Adoption and ROI
All employees have a crucial reason to visit IBM Connections
to access the integrated Internal Communications
Newbies (and ‘silver surfers’) benefit from structured content
Newbies discover content faster
(even if they do not yet follow other employees or communities)
Many employees can be involved in maintaining landing pages
for business units, service units, locations and projects –
those employees will be strong Connections power users and
promoters
XCC increases IBM Connections usage by 100%

4. Reduce Complexity
Simplicity for Authors
Creating content is really easy, no technical training required
(i.e. management compatible)
Everything is in one place: authors do not need to choose between two systems
to publish their content
Technical Complexity
No search integration required (all content is within one index)
Read Access Management is given thru Communities, no project required
Single Sign On for CMS & Connections is given
Activity Stream and UI Integration are given, no project required
Personalization is really easy, no technical project required

5. Cut Costs
Eliminate Web CMS costs for
Selection
Purchase
Implementation
Integration
Training and
Running
another platform besides IBM Connections

Customer Statements
“In order for Pilz Connections to succeed,
it was important to offer all employees simple
and clear first steps into the world of social
business.
The TIMETOACT solution enabled us to avoid
reservations and acquaint users with the
concept of knowledge management.”
Jürgen Fischer
Project Manager Communication and Collaboration
Services, Pilz GmbH & Co.KG

US Government Customer Statements II
“Felix, I do not think you will have problems selling your product
once people figure it out. Your product completes IBM
Connections. As you say in your marketing material it provides
the top-down communication that overlays IBM Connections so
that the employee has no other place to attend to. They get the
top down via your product and the bottom up via IBM
Connections. Employees do not have to go anywhere else,
everything is in one place.”

“Felix:
I am putting together our budget for FY2015, and would like to
receive a quote to purchase the Connections Administration
Toolkit. We have had such great luck with XCC, that I would
like to see if CAT can help us as well.”
US Government Customer with a “no public reference” policy.

Customer Statement
"VAUDE has had an conventional intranet with a web content management
system. It worked OK for our internal communications. However, the
content from line of business outdated / decayed quickly. We were
therefore looking for an alternative Intranet platform.
As a medium sized company we wanted to avoid running multiple
platforms for communication and collaboration. We were searching for an
integrated or hybrid intranet platform that spans collaboration, knowledge
management and internal communications.
IBM Connections convinced us as a superior collaboration and knowledge
management platform.”
Manfred Meindl
Manager Intranet
and Online
Marketing

Customer Statement
The Web Content Management Extension (XCC) from TIMETOACT neatly
integrates internal communications into IBM Connections.
We created an ideal information architecture that seamlessly integrates
internal communications and collaboration in an hybrid Intranet. Our new
Intranet has been perceived very well by our employees. As it turned out,
the integrated internal communications simplifies and accelerates the
adoption of IBM Connections within the employees. The Web Content
Management Extension can be adopted to changing requirements easily.
Line of business appreciates the simplicity with which they can create and
curate content to maintain their landing pages.
Throughout the project we worked with TIMETOACT for analysis,
conception, consulting, customization and implementation. All work was
achieved within the agreed budget. Our experiences with TIMETOACT
were excellent and we can fully recommend working with TIMETOACT."

Customer Statements
XCC has transformed IBM Connections
into a complete intranet environment
With XCC we are able to combine the social features
of IBM Connections with the functionalities and look &
feel of an intranet.

access applications, find upcoming events and locate
colleagues.
Sander Zwart, Social Business Consultant,
ilionx, Netherlands

XCC brings internal communication on
whole new level. With gathering most
valuable content in one place and
presenting it in modern way, XCC helps
to increase users' awareness about
company's life and improves onboarding
process for new employees. And this is
only a small part of XCC capabilities.
Marcin Kasa,
Axxiome Group
Customer Statements

The acceptance for our new intranet based on IBM
Connections and XCC is very high among our
employees. XCC is used by corporate communication as
an information platform for communicating internal matters
towards employees. IBM Connections is used as a
platform for collaboration among employees. Information
and collaboration platform are perfectly integrated
into a user-friendly and powerful intranet. Collaboration
across departments has grown significantly. Both new
and experienced employees appreciate the new
intranet very much.
Retail sector customer with a “no public reference” policy.
Customer Statements

IBM Software
IBM Collaboration Services
is excited to partner with
TIMETOACT to bring their
Content Management
Extension for IBM
Connections to our
customers as an IBM
Collaboration Services App.
This innovative solution brings additional value to an IBM Connections
environment, allowing our customers to elegantly integrate their internal
communication’s content into their social business platform. IBM and
TIMETOACT together, a partnership to accelerate social business.

IBM Statements
To get the most out of a social software application it
should be seamlessly integrated in the work environment of
users. (…) TimeToAct takes this trend further with their
new solution out of their IBM Connections lab: Web
CMS Extension for IBM Connections.
The Web CMS Extension for IBM Connections provides
a seamless integration of different content into your
IBM Connections platform. Through the built in
applications, user groups with access to the editorial
communities can create content which will then be
displayed on a consolidated custom homepage. External
content like a corporate newsfeed or a Google Weather
widget can be offered on the custom homepage as well.

Notes on a customers special request
Selfie Competition Widget
A company has a special event, like a new company logo, a new slogan, a new product or
something similar. Let us assume it is a new company logo.
Internal communications wants employees to hail and identify with the new logo. Internal
communications launch a selfie competition - all employees are asked to create pictures of
themselves giving the new logo a smile, a kiss, hug it or carry it to beautiful places.
Employees upload the pictures to a Connections media gallery. A new widget is added to
the companies Intranet homepage - created with XCC and IBM Connections. The widget
displays the 9 latest uploads. In the widget everyone can like the best selfies. The pictures
with the most "likes" win a small prize.
Is this not a great idea? I just absolutely love it. It helps internal communications to create some excitement for the new company
logo and drive employee engagement.
Our customer addressed us on Thursday morning with the idea. Thursday 2pm we had the go the implement the idea. Monday
morning by 10:00 we were able to deliver the custom widget.
We have been working with internal communications and marketing people for more then 16 years now. We really enjoy working
with those people. They are creative, demanding and often times under time pressure. But, internal communications and
marketing are fun to work with and, when you do a good job, they appreciate your work.
Eventually we will include the new selfie competition widget with XCC. We are looking forward to many more creative ideas. It is
those ideas that make an Intranet livelily. Anyhow: My huge thanks goes to our XCC team, particularly to the developer who
checked in on Sunday morning to develop the widget.

Create future Intranet Site Map
Plan personalization (check availability of profile attributes)
Design Intranet homepage
Design landing pages
Design custom widgets if required
Map communities to site map / widgets

Suggested Project Plan III
Rollout Strategy
Top Down Approach:
Create Intranet homepage first, create landing pages for business units later.

(keep previous intranet platform for the start).

Suggested Project Plan IV
Implementation
Create custom CSS for Intranet homepage and landing pages
Create XCC landing pages (from templates)
Assign content masters for landing page maintenance
Map or create communities
Rollout
Internal Communications and BU content masters create content
Publish pages as they fill with content
