Tifre Improved Communication With Construction Employees by Moving Away from WhatsApp
About Tifre
- Industry: Construction
- Locations: Various construction sites and workplaces
- Number of employees: Around 50
Challenge: Fragmented communication and difficulty reaching all construction employees
Tifre, a construction company managing multiple projects across different locations, faced a major communication challenge. Employees on job sites and in the field often missed important updates, leading to inefficiencies and confusion.
The company initially relied on WhatsApp groups to communicate, but this approach created more problems than solutions.
3 communication challenges Tifre faced when communicating with construction employees
- Lost information – Important messages got buried in long chat threads, leading to missed updates.
- Wrong information reaching the wrong people – Messages weren’t always sent to the right employees, causing confusion.
- Limited communication with field workers – Employees on construction sites struggled to receive and send real-time updates.
Tifre needed a solution that centralized communication, organized messages, and ensured that all employees received the right information at the right time.
The solution: Speakap as a centralized communication platform instead of relying on WhatsApp
After evaluating different platforms, Tifre chose Speakap to improve communication and boost efficiency. Key benefits included:

- Multilingual support – Automatic translation made communication seamless for non-native speakers and subcontractors.
