Success Stories
Edrington
The story
Edrington is one of the world’s leading whisky manufacturers and distributors, with a brand portfolio including The Famous Grouse, The Macallan and Highland Park.
"CompanyNet developed a system based on Microsofts SharePoint platform which manages the process – from the initial idea, through to the approval of a new product or expression."
The Requirement
CompanyNet were next asked to create a New Product Development system to support the business’s continuous innovation. Edrington's existing system did not fulfil their needs, and they saw the advantages of SharePoint for enabling collaboration across the business.

The solution’s close integration with the existing Brands Portal created a consistent experience for users, thanks to features such as Active Directory logins and security groups which were already in place.
It also fostered closer collaboration between staff at Edrington’s offices around the world, improving efficiency and driving innovation.
