PwC ‘Shake It App’

Encouraging cross functional collaboration through creative engagement.

Challenge

Internal teams needed reminding of the breadth of services available to support cross-functional projects.

With multiple disciplines split across 22,600+ employees, easy revenue opportunities were being missed.

Solution

We created the ‘Shake it App’ mobile app.

As a fresh and unexpected approach in a world of dry business applications, we developed a mechanism using device-native functionality to bring the concept to life and keep the organisation’s capabilities front of mind.

After opening the app, users shake their device to roll sets of dice. Each surface features a line of service or specialism, with some complimentary to each other. Dice can be locked, and the set re-rolled to discover functions that work best together.

Users can choose dice from the full set of services, or narrow the field with services complimentary to their current offering.

Touching a die gives full details of the line of service and team contact details.

Result

10,000+ user sessions in month one.
