From scattered email to one central intranet for 450 employees
You didn't get into internal communication to wonder whether important messages were ever seen. Yet that's exactly where Lantis, known for projects like the Oosterweel connection, stood, until they built one central place with Involv intranet where everything comes together. It worked for them. Watch the Involv intranet demo videos and discover in a few minutes how we can move your organisation forward too.
Too many channels, too little overview
Lantis delivers mobility and liveability projects in the Antwerp region. Hanne Oostvogels and Jeroen Heymans share how this fast-growing, hybrid organisation lost its grip on internal communication.
The situation before Involv intranet
No central intranet
Internal communication mainly took place via email and loose channels like Viva Engage. In a fast-growing, hybrid organisation, that approach increasingly began to show its limits.
Information hard to retrieve
Messages became scattered across mailboxes and channels. Retrieving them became difficult, and knowledge depended too much on individual inboxes and personal storage.
Did everyone actually see it?
With every communication, the same question kept coming up: has everyone seen this, and where can colleagues find this information again later?
As they grew, Lantis needed more overview, more structure and one central place where information is stored sustainably and stays easy to access.
Why Lantis chose Involv intranet
Lantis compared several solutions against clear criteria. Involv intranet brought those elements together in a single solution: intuitive to use, flexibly set up and perfectly integrated with their existing Microsoft environment.
- Easy to use for both end users and administrators, accessible and quick to master.
- Scalable and dynamic, so the intranet grows along with new teams, structures and projects.
- Microsoft-native: ~90% of the IT environment runs on Microsoft, so a solution built on SharePoint was logical. Existing SharePoint knowledge ensured a smooth implementation and rapid adoption.
Involv intranet in daily operations
Since the implementation, which went smoothly and according to plan and was supported by targeted workshops, Involv has become a fixed part of daily operations at Lantis.
- News and content are centrally bundled and easy to find.
- The Who is Who feature helps colleagues find their way in a changing organisation.
- Teams and themes provide clear structure, and information can be updated dynamically without extra emails.
A concrete example is an internal relocation campaign: Involv served as a central information hub where colleagues always found the most up-to-date floor plans and practical information. Changes were made quickly, without overwhelming the organisation with extra emails.
For us, Involv is a true one-stop shop: it brings overview and structure to everything that is happening within the organisation and ensures that information is stored sustainably and remains accessible, even in a project-based environment with a changing organisational structure.

What a central intranet delivers for a fast-growing organisation
One central source
News and knowledge are centralised and easy to find.
Rapid adoption
Smooth implementation thanks to existing SharePoint knowledge.
Less internal pressure
Employees look up information themselves, reducing pressure on the organisation.
Lasting knowledge
Information stays preserved, even as the organisational structure changes.
Today, Involv intranet has grown into a core communication tool, offering room for interaction, context and collaboration between teams. In a fast-growing organisation, a central intranet has proven not to be a luxury, but an essential building block, with a support team that responds quickly and actively thinks along.
Two ways this can go
Without a central intranet
Information stays scattered across email and loose channels. Knowledge disappears in mailboxes. And as your organisation grows, you keep wondering whether everyone actually saw your message.
With Involv intranet
One central source, findable for everyone. Knowledge stays preserved. Your internal communication grows along with the organisation, built on your own Microsoft 365.
