Inside the project
Client brief
Veolia SARP Industries (SARPI) is Veolia's specialised subsidiary for the treatment and recovery of hazardous waste. A European reference player, SARPI operates a network of more than 110 industrial sites across 10 European countries, processes several million tonnes of special waste each year and serves more than 10,000 industrial clients.
Its activities cover environmentally and operationally critical processes: incineration with energy recovery, physico-chemical treatment, solvent and oil regeneration, site remediation and battery recycling. In such a distributed industrial environment, internal communication and employee engagement are strategic topics.
The need: create a company intranet that felt more alive than a traditional document portal, able to relay group news, streamline information for employees and support a gamified HR experience around participation and internal engagement.
Our approach
We designed and built a Progressive Web App structured as an internal social network, using a Next.js-type front-end framework and a bespoke HTML / CSS interface: an experience available on mobile and desktop, a news feed for group communications, and interaction flows allowing employees to read, react and participate more easily in the company's internal life.
The gamified HR dimension was embedded at the heart of the experience: engagement mechanics, employee participation, content highlighting and activation scenarios designed to make the intranet more useful day-to-day and more engaging than a traditional top-down tool.
We also connected the platform to Brevo for email communications and Twilio for SMS notifications, then set up bespoke hosting on an Ubuntu Linux server to ensure important messages could reach employees through the right channels, including in an industrial context where not every user continuously checks a workstation.
The project today
The platform gives SARPI an internal digital touchpoint to bring employees together, relay group news and activate HR moments in a more participatory way.
We are proud to have supported a European industrial player committed to ecological transformation on a project connecting internal communications, employee experience and digital tools suited to field usage.
