BSkyB Case Study

The Company

BSkyB are one of the most well known brands operating in the UK today. They provide a range of services, including satellite and digital television, broadband services and telephone services. They are one of the largest and most well known brands in the UK.

The Challenge

BSkyB are currently in the process of switching over all of their operating systems to the Windows 7 OS recently released by Microsoft. As such they needed to collect a range of user data from their current employees to find out current user information which would then be utilised in facilitating a successful migration of all BSkyB services over to the new operating system.

The Solution

The problem faced by BSkyB was finding a quick and efficient way to collect the relevant user data from their employees. The method chosen would have to ensure minimal paperwork, while also achieving a degree of automation that could make it easier to implement.

Imobisoft were tasked with creating a fully integrated survey solution that would allow BSkyB to individually assess each staff member and obtain the required information from them.

This information was then sent to an online database that would be fully usable by BSkyB to complete the migration to Windows 7.

The data was fully encrypted to ensure maximum security levels and could be extracted by BSkyB when and if needed. All data maintained was subject to the Data Protection Act 1998 and Imobisoft made sure to comply with all data protection and security procedures when handling the attained data.
