Grant Thornton help Britain's brightest and best to achieve their growth potential
Grant Thornton UK LLP is part of a global network of independent audit, tax and advisory firms, made up of some 58,000 people in over 135 countries
They combine global scale with local insight, quality and understanding to give assurance, tax, and advisory services.
The GrowthAccelerator service is spearheaded by Grant Thornton and part funded by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills as a partnership between the government and private sector, to help companies with the potential for rapid and sustainable growth.
In total, £200 million has been invested into the programme to help tens of thousands of businesses realize their potential, achieve rapid and sustainable growth and subsequently boost the UK economy.
The challenge
Working with a geographically dispersed team and a number of delivery partners, Grant Thornton needed a platform that would enable its team to deliver consistent communications across the programme.
Working with a number of partner organizations and business coaches, Grant Thornton not only needed a secure cloud-based platform, enabling teams to work together across the firewall, it also required granular security measures.

Huddle has enabled us to simplify a project that could have potentially been very complicated.
The solution
Using Huddle, Grant Thornton created a central, secure online environment that enabled each of the partners involved in the project to access the content they required.
With an authoritative source of documents and a clear audit trail of approvals, everyone involved in the service can now be sure that they are accessing the right version of a document at all times.
With the ability to set the security controls and permissions for each workspace and individual user, Grant Thornton could be safe in the knowledge that its data was stored on a secure platform and only those permitted to see certain
documents had access.
The Results
Using Huddle, Grant Thornton is able to share and work on valuable content with partner organizations nationwide, supporting thousands of ambitious SMEs across England.
There are now hundreds of people using Huddle across the partner organisations including Winning Pitch, Oxford Innovation and Pera.
In the future, Grant Thornton plans to roll out Huddle to thousands of clients nationwide.

Working with such a large team, it was essential that we had one shared platform to provide a single reference point for everyone. We needed to make sure communications were consistent across the whole service. Following the success of this project, we want to increase our use of Huddle, bringing collaboration to the forefront and reducing inbox overload.
