Heath Barnhart - First Commonwealth Bank 

First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union, a growing financial institution with approximately 300 employees and ambitious plans for expansion, sought innovative ways to enhance internal communication and engagement.

With an exciting new chapter starting for First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union, it wanted to move away from the legacy and outdated tools of the past. ScreenCloud’s innovative digital signage solutions were brought in to revolutionize internal communication and employee engagement. ScreenCloud provided the technology to make the expanded company more informed and productive.

The Communication Challenges Facing First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union

First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union was on a trajectory of rapid growth, with plans to merge with two smaller credit unions. Additionally, it recently added a new location in Phillipsburg. With this expansion, it recognized the need to refocus its brand and effectively communicate with employees to ensure everyone stayed informed and engaged.

Despite having an intranet, First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union faced challenges in getting employees to actively engage with internal communications. Traditional methods like emails and printed materials were often overlooked. It needed a solution to effectively deliver updates, promotions, and critical information to its employees.

First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union turned to ScreenCloud, which offered a versatile digital signage platform powered by Samsung Hospitality's commercial-grade televisions and Tizen operating system. This platform allowed ScreenCloud to deploy over 50 screens across thirteen locations throughout. It strategically used these screens to provide live-streamed interviews, promotional demos, and location-specific data.

Key Benefits of Deploying ScreenCloud Solutions 

Digital signage solutions are transforming the way employees stay informed and engaged. Instead of bombarding them with multiple emails and extensive battle cards before promotions or important updates, ScreenCloud’s solutions are a more efficient approach. By utilizing intranet screens, employees can access information effortlessly and have constant reminders at their fingertips.

The screens are strategically timed, ensuring that critical messages reach them at the right moment. The constant presence serves as an invaluable resource, acting as a subtle yet effective nudge, reminding employees about important updates, events, or even closures. ScreenCloud's versatile capabilities are a game-changer, enhancing the flow of information and ensuring that employees stay well-informed, ultimately benefiting the business in numerous ways.

This wouldn’t have been possible without ScreenCloud’s advanced screens.

First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union was able to use the power of digital signage solutions to drive accessibility and education initiatives. Through live-streamed interviews the company successfully raised awareness and facilitated comprehensive education for employees and managers alike. First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union was able to provide financial awareness to its employees by sharing relevant financial information via content displayed on the ScreenCloud screens.
