Franchise giant Winkworth has unveiled a new management platform that helps franchisors streamline operations, boost engagement, and ensure compliance.

Winkworth has a network of more than 100 offices across the UK and overseas. Last week it reported to shareholders a surprise slump in profits despite a surge in sales: it also admitted that its let-only business – private landlords instructing the firm to source tenants without using its full management service – had “shown some decline”. 

Now a statement says the agency chain has adopted a single, unified platform to centralise documentation, and deliver scalable training. 

The new branded hub supports company-wide and local updates through news and blogs and create an indexed knowledge base.

“Winkworth is a great example of how an integrated intranet and LMS can power a franchise network at scale. By bringing comms, knowledge, and training into one branded hub, they’ve removed friction for busy offices and created a consistent experience for every team member and every client” says Nigel Davies, chief executive at Claromentis, which created the hub.

Winkworth’s James Peacock, head of brand and communications, comments: “Claromentis offers a user-friendly solution to this challenge by allowing us to upload documents, news, and training quickly, and then display them in a fresh and visually appealing way that drives engagement.”
