Mercedes-Benz – Gamified Internal Knowledge Sharing App
Background
Mercedes-Benz, a global leader in the automotive industry, sought to enhance internal communication and knowledge-sharing among employees. As part of their continuous innovation efforts, they required a flexible, tech-driven solution to encourage learning and engagement across their teams.
Process & Results
Project Overview:
Mercedes-Benz enlisted Ulfix to develop a gamified React Native mobile app that would help employees engage with company knowledge through interactive challenges, earn points, and win rewards. The app aimed to streamline internal knowledge sharing and improve employee engagement globally.
Solution:
Ulfix was responsible for both frontend and backend development, working closely with the provided designs and requirements to build a dynamic and user-friendly solution. The app was created with React Native for cross-platform capability and initially launched on iOS, as all Mercedes-Benz employees use iPhones for internal purposes. The platform integrates gamified elements, allowing users to compete in knowledge-based challenges, earn points, and win rewards, fostering a culture of continuous learning. Ulfix also integrated the app within Mercedes-Benz’s DevOps environment and iterated on deployments, ensuring seamless updates and functionality.
Key Features:
- Gamification: Interactive challenges, leaderboards, and point-based reward systems to encourage engagement and learning.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Developed with React Native to allow future scalability to other platforms beyond iOS.
- Seamless Integration: Ongoing iterations and integration with the Mercedes-Benz DevOps environment for continuous deployment and updates.
