Internet partner Gasunie
Case
We have been Gasunie's internet partner since 2008. In recent years we have realized digital newsletters, the intranet, the narrowcasting system, annual reports and dozens of websites.
Gasunie is a European gas infrastructure company for the international market. The activities vary from arranging gas transport to storage of gas and transhipment of liquefied gas (LNG). And from participating in international participations to developing new services.
The collaboration with Gasunie is a real partnership. And that's how we prefer to work.
Gasunie & iWink
Dozens of smart websites
Our thinking, building and design work did not stop at the corporate website. Thanks to the projects, partnerships and subsidiary components, Gasunie's online communication is spread over various target group-specific websites.
Gasunie Transport Services
GTS is a subsidiary of Gasunie and manager of the national gas transport network in the Netherlands. The aim of GTS is to independently offer and execute gas transport services for a well-functioning free gas market. An important focus area of GTS is to pay optimal attention to its customers and suppliers. In order to achieve this, the internal organizational structure has been optimized with the aim of an even higher level of service. The main assignment for the new GTS website is to translate this service level and to realize a knowledge-rich platform where the various target groups can find their way.
Data disclosure
An advanced link with the back-end systems of GTS provides the current gas information on the website every five minutes. This information is essential for GTS's customers and must be available at all times. For that reason, GTS also opted for a fall-back solution.
Gasunie builds
Most projects where Gasunie works 'in the field' are not very visible.
Gasuniebouwt 'Gasunie builds' is the name of the project that will install approximately 105 kilometers of gas transport pipeline between Beverwijk and Wijngaarden in 2013 and 2014. A huge project with consequences for local residents, commuters and other involved parties. The main task of the project website gasuniebouwt.nl was to inform local residents about the activities and to give social media an important place in this, and was later converted into a website for all Gasunie projects.
The most up-to-date information is always available to local residents. This approach shows respect and is an example for modern "local communication".
EnergyStock
EnergyStock replaces the gas storage facility Gasunie Zuidwending and opts for a new profile. From this gas storage facility, EnergyStock serves energy companies and traders with tailor-made solutions for optimizing energy portfolios, managing risks and improving trading opportunities. We developed a new one for EnergyStock responsive website.
The website contains current data on the use of gas storage. This shows how much gas flows in or out of the gas storage and provides insight into the total amount of stored gas. The most up-to-date data is received daily via a link, so that the graphs, tables and downloads are always up-to-date.
iWink understood our purpose for the website and was able to translate our strategic questions into workable applications on the website.
Narrowcasting
Gasunie uses Kirra Narrowcasting at all its various locations in the country. Various 'presentations' run at the head office in Groningen, adapted to the location of the screens. For example, the screen at the company restaurant shows the menu of the day. In the central hall near the lifts, a presentation is shown with internal vacancies and the gas transported on that day. The various locations in the country also use digital signage to indicate which meeting rooms are reserved at what time. In addition to the standard options within Kirra Narrowcasting (including Twitter and Buienradar integration), the narrowcasting for Gasunie is also linked to the internal business systems for opening up vacancies and gas transport information.
MethaNet
An important project for both Gasunie and ourselves was the realization of MethaNet: Gasunie's intranet. This not only created an environment where news and documentation became more accessible to the 1,700 employees. The emphasis was mainly on bringing together the various applications and software that employees use. In MethaNet, all necessary applications are available via the intranet in one click within a dropdown screen, by means of a so-called layer. A user-friendly and effective solution that also makes the intranet the starting point of every working day.
Recognition
With both MethaNet and the corporate website we have been nominated for a Dutch Interactive Award, an award for the very best interactive work of the year. The case "Gasunie builds" earned us a nomination for the Grand Prix Customer Media Award and a very nice jury assessment.
As a regular internet partner of Gasunie, we are proud of these nominations, and we are not alone. Eveline van der Hek, communications advisor at Gasunie: "Being nominated is a great recognition that we are very proud of."
