We also implemented a robust governance model, ensuring long-term sustainability and ease of content management. The homepage was designed with simplicity and clarity in mind, featuring quick links to essential tools.

Business Benefits
The new intranet is now live and thriving. It’s more than a communication tool—it’s a digital workplace that reflects INEGI’s culture, supports its people, and evolves with its needs.
We’re proud to have contributed to this transformation and grateful for the trust INEGI placed in us.
