The new SFR, the 1st alternative operator in Europe following the merger between SFR - Neuf Cegetel, has selected the enterprise search engine Sinequa CS to federate their internal communication tools and facilitate the integration of the two companies. This strategic project aims to create synergies within the new company and thus enable SFR to maintain its leadership.

The enterprise search engine Sinequa CS is integrated into the MySFR portal, offering employees a single point of access to information. With MySFR, SFR simplifies internal communication to broaden opportunities and foster collaboration between employees. MySFR allows 10,000 SFR employees to benefit from a close personal relationship with the company as a whole.

In the initial deployment Sinequa CS connects to different sources of information within SFR, including the collaborative SharePoint space, network shared drives, intranets and SAP applications for invoice management. The volume of available data exceeds 5 million documents (Office formats, HTML). By quickly and easily enabling the addition of new applications or data sources as needed, Sinequa accompanies SFR in its growth.

"We chose Sinequa for its simplicity, efficiency and the rich functionalities of the Sinequa CS solution" said Frédérique Liaigre, Communications Director, SFR. "The SFR team appreciated the speed of implementation of the tool, the available connectors, and the relationship of trust we have built with Sinequa.”

Jean Ferré, President of Sinequa commented "SFR is a next generation operator, an ideal example of Sinequa’s vision of the enterprise that is evolving with highly mobile employees who nevertheless need to remain connected with the business. The deployment of the project in ten days during the merger with Neuf Cegetel, perfectly illustrates the enterprise search engine as powerful tool to foster collective intelligence. The return on investment will be huge for SFR, especially in terms of their employees becoming better integrated into the company and therefore more effective. Sinequa CS will help SFR remain agile, dynamic, and offer the maximum potential for each employee. I am pleased that the companies that adhere to Sinequa’s vision are leaders in their sector. Our customers are our driving force; we want to enable them to surpass the market."
