New Belgium Brewing prides itself on continued commitment to its “alternatively empowered” culture, even as the company grows. To ensure that employees, including its dispersed sales force, can tap into that company culture and also access important information, New Belgium has invested in a range of Microsoft communications and collaboration solutions. By doing so, the New Belgium IT department can easily add solutions to respond to ongoing business needs, without a significant increase in management or IT complexity. Plus, New Belgium is providing employees with a choice of familiar tools so that they can determine the best communications mechanism for a given situation, which helps them focus on producing and selling great beer.
