Haiilo partners Work Networks to boost platform adoption

Haiilo has formed a strategic partnership with Work Networks, a UK consultancy focused on workplace adoption.

Under the agreement, Work Networks will help organisations implement and roll out Haiilo’s employee experience platform. Its work will include support for community-building, leadership engagement and communication strategies designed to make the platform part of employees’ daily routines.

The move comes as many employers continue to invest in workplace technology while facing weak adoption and engagement across their workforces. Staff are often asked to work across fragmented systems, disconnected communication channels and a growing number of digital tools, leaving employees to manage information overload and competing demands on their attention.

The partnership is part of Haiilo’s wider global partner network. The company operates from offices in the US, UK, Germany and Finland.

Adoption focus

For Haiilo, the tie-up adds a consulting partner with expertise in change management and internal communication at a time when software vendors are under pressure to show that workplace platforms are being used after purchase. The platform is designed to bring communication, knowledge and tools into one place for employees, including frontline and distributed teams.

Work Networks will support organisations through implementation and adoption, rather than only at the point of software deployment. This places the emphasis on workplace habits, leadership behaviour and communication planning, which often determine whether internal platforms gain traction with staff.

Andrew Avanessian, Chief Executive Officer, Haiilo, said: “Employees are often left navigating too many tools, too many systems and too much noise. Attention has become one of the most valuable resources inside any organisation, yet too many workplace experiences are designed in ways that constantly fragment it.

“Haiilo helps organisations create a more connected experience where communication, knowledge and tools work together seamlessly. Partners like Work Networks play a critical role in making that vision a reality, ensuring lasting adoption and meaningful change.”

Consulting role

The partnership also reflects demand from employers for more support with digital workplace change programmes. In many organisations, new systems are introduced into already crowded technology environments, making it harder for staff to know where to find information or which tools should take priority.

This challenge is often more pronounced in businesses with frontline workers or dispersed teams, where communication can be inconsistent and access to corporate systems may vary. By combining software with rollout planning and leadership engagement, companies are trying to reduce the risk that new platforms become underused.

Nick Crawford, Chief Executive Officer, Work Networks, said: “Haiilo’s platform gives organisations a powerful foundation, but technology alone often isn’t enough – organisations also need the right strategy, leadership engagement and cultural change to ensure platforms are truly adopted.

“Our partnership combines Haiilo’s platform with a people-first approach to rollout and adoption, helping organisations create digital workplaces where communication flows naturally and employees feel part of a connected community.”
