The Challenge

Before using LumApps, Schnucks relied primarily on email to inform and communicate with all their teammates. They did not have a central source of truth for information and knowledge-sharing. Content and communications on branding, expansion, and even detailed sales and incentive initiatives could get lost between email, calendar, documents, and other apps in their productivity suite. Teammates on the frontlines, in stores or on the go for delivery, did not receive emails like teammates in the office or HQ.

They wanted a way to connect all teammates regardless of where they were located, to ensure they receive the latest important information and are equipped with the resources they need.

Why LumApps?

Schnucks turned to LumApps and Agosto, a trusted LumApps partner, to help drive the transformation. Schnucks turned to LumApps intranet solution for its native integration with G Suite, customizable design and the ability for department heads and store managers to autonomously distribute information to their teammates.

Benefits

Schnucks went live with LumApps in 2019, naming their intranet platform, ‘‘Schnucks Connection.’’ The platform serves as a convenient, comprehensive one-stop-shop and the go-to resource for all 14,000+ teammates across 113 locations. As the centralized information hub, it is an invaluable and powerful streamlined communication tool for the entire organization.
