Global Hotel Company’s New Intranet Unifies Brand Image while
Optimizing Knowledge Management
Vignette (NASDAQ: VIGN), the company that the world’s leading brands
rely on for innovative and dynamic Web experiences, today announced that
Hyatt is using the Vignette Web Experience Platform to power its
corporate intranet. With this enterprise-wide platform, Hyatt’s
workforce worldwide now can enjoy a more productive and collaborative
work environment that enables easy access to and location of important
business information.
“Hyatt’s goals for the new intranet were to connect communities,
encourage collaboration and share a unified brand image worldwide,” said
Robb Webb, chief human resources officer for Global Hyatt Corporation.
“Using the Vignette Web Experience Platform, our employees can quickly
update and locate fundamental information and benefit from the knowledge
of other employees - regardless of location. This translates into more
time dedicated to our guests and more meaningful priorities.”
The Hyatt intranet provides streamlined, centralized access to business
information and reduces the need for IT involvement. The site also
offers an easy-to-use, non-technical tool for employees to create,
update and customize information and resources for various departments
and co-workers.
Multiple components of the Vignette Web Experience Platform drive
Hyatt’s intranet.

Portal integrates information from multiple systems and allows Hyatt
employees to quickly update, search for and locate accurate business and
employee information. This relieves the human resources team of
administrative burdens normally associated with manual processes while
creating a more personalized environment for each user. Hyatt’s intranet
search function spans the width of the enterprise to yield appropriate
content and streamline business operations.
“As one of the world’s premier hotel companies, Hyatt needed a highly
scalable solution to provide the ideal intranet experience for the
thousands of employees who rely on it,” said Dave Dutch, senior vice
president of products and marketing for Vignette. “Vignette
Intranet Solutions have delivered this to Hyatt and have provided a
sustainable platform oriented towards future growth.”
