New network of large LCD displays improves internal communications
Concord, Ontario – September 29, 2008 - Omnivex Corporation, the premier provider of enterprise software for digital signage networks, announced today that NAVSEA in Washington, D.C., is deploying Omnivex software on digital signage displays throughout its headquarters. NAVSEA is responsible for developing, delivering and maintaining ships and systems for the U.S. Navy.
With the Omnivex digital signage platform, NAVSEA command information is transformed into concise, compelling multimedia content that is easily consumed by the workforce. The content is presented on a system of large LCD displays placed in high-traffic locations.
"We wanted to dramatically increase our workforce's awareness of key initiatives, progress toward goals and important internal communications," said Patricia Dolan, Deputy Director of Communications at NAVSEA. "We have other ways to get these messages out, but digital signage allows better message recall and comprehension."
Omnivex's multi-zone capabilities allow individual screens to show a combination of common and unique content. For example, the content shown in the badge office may include information on the camera phone policy, while a screen near the auditorium may focus on upcoming meetings. However, both screens might show a common message on competency alignment.
"Organizations are learning that employee productivity increases significantly when pertinent information is presented to them at strategic locations," said Jeff Collard, President of Omnivex. "If employees see progress against clearly identified operational goals on large-format displays, then they can make smarter decisions, and everyone rows in the same direction."
Enterprises often find it difficult to disseminate and communicate information to their employees in a timely manner. Omnivex helps companies provide accurate, real-time feedback to their employees when and where they need it most.
Omnivex serves customers in the Operations, Education, Hospitality, Public Venue, Retail and other market segments.
