The UK’s Motorist Champion the RAC uses Sabercom digital signage for internal communication

Sabercom have announced today that the RAC motoring organisation has installed Sabercom digital signage at their iconic customer service centre located next to the M5/M4 motorway junction near Bristol.

The customer service centre operates 7 days a week with over 200 staff working on a rotating shift pattern. Sabercom installed 10 screens to ensure that each of the seven business groups were kept up to date with the latest corporate and specific business group updates. This includes a daily KPI summary for each business group, a live Twitter feed, the weekly corporate news reel, weather and RAC traffic RSS feeds.

The multimedia content on each screen can be tailored for each business group with instant business updates using the scrolling ticker text via Sabercom’s easy to use management system. Different levels of user access were set up to allow overall control by the Internal Communications team and individual screen control by each business group leader.

Sabercom Digital Signage provide on screen communication systems including desktop screen savers and large enterprise digital signage networks for multi media messaging across multiple sites.

Digital Signage Case Study: Communicating with visitors using a reception screen

The Client

With 300 centres in 70 countries, New Horizons Computer Learning Centre is the largest independent IT Training Provider in the world, delivering more courses than any other IT training company. 

In 2012 New Horizons celebrated delivering 30 years of computer training to over 30 million students worldwide. It also saw the re-launch of New Horizons London, overlooking London's Olympic Village. As part as the new Tech City initiative, New Horizons London's flagship learning centre houses state of the art training facilities. 

The Challenge

The new London office is open 7 days a week and expects to see over 200 Learners a week. There is a constant influx of new Learners so New Horizons need to be able to communicate essential house keeping information and direct Learners to their training rooms each day.

The Solution

Sabercom worked closely with the marketing and IT teams to specify and provide a 3 screen digital signage system for the new office.  Two screens in their reception area, for welcoming visitors and one in the canteen used to display course information to students.  A mixture of images, time tables, video and RSS feeds ensure that anyone visiting the centre is kept up to date.  The system can easily be used to broadcast room alterations and list different certifications and courses available.

The content on screen can be changed via Sabercom’s easy to use web management interface and any new media added is automatically pushed out to the screens or can be scheduled for a later date or time.

Customer Testimonial

“Sabercom’s new and innovative technologies were the perfect choice for the re-design of New Horizons London’s new state-of-the-art computer training centre.

Our Sabercom system allows us to easily and instantaneously display up-to-the-minute news and information about all our courses and certifications to the high amount of customers that come into our centre...”

Digital Signage Case Study - Corporate Screensaver

The Client

Our client, is responsible for providing a wide range of hospital based services to a population of around 360,000 people across South Staffordshire, South Derby-shire and North West Leicestershire. The number of patients cared for each year in their hospitals is impressive - over 47,000 planned and emergency operations, more than 70,000 A&E attendances and around 13,000 daycase procedures.

The Challenge

Burton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust provide hospital-based services from four main sites, Queen’s, Samuel Johnson, Sir Robert Peel and the treatment centre. With staff constantly on the move, four different sites to contend with and over 2500 PC users, communicating important campaigns such as hand hygiene, energy saving and Antibiotics awareness can prove a real challenge!

The Solution

Sabercom worked closely with Burton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust to specify and install the Sabercom corporate screensaver solution. Currently running at Queen’s Hospital and the Treatment Centre with a view to being rolled out to all sites, Sabercom’s screen saver allows communication managers to drive communication campaigns and corporate information directly to the desktops of employees. The screensaver works in the same way as any ordinary screensaver with the exception that information is taken directly from Sabercom’s easy to use screensaver designer tool. The contents of the screensaver can easily be updated from one central location and information can be scheduled for certain times of day or  days of the week. The Sabercom system has proven to be a useful communications channel for Burton Hospitals. Sabercom's on-going relationship ensures that the solution is constantly evolving to meet their requirements.

Customer Testimonial

"The Sabercom software is easy to use and allows the updating of our screensaver using our own corporate
brand and content or nationally prepared materials in various formats.
On the occasions when technical support has been required the team were always very helpful and have an excellent knowledge of their system and provide guidance in an easy to understand way".
Toni Carlile - Communications Manager, Burton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

Corporate Screensaver as Digital Signage?

A corporate screensaver is an internal communication channel that runs outside of the usual email traffic. A powerful way to raise awareness and communicate campaigns.  Every PC has a screen already attached, so why not make use of this existing network of screens - more cost effective then a full blown digital signage solution.

We have installed our corporate screensaver across over 2000 screens at an NHS hospital in South Staffs. 

With staff at the hospital constantly on the go, the screensaver ensures that communications never go unnoticed.

We worked closely (and continue to do so) with the NHS Hospital to specify and install their corporate screen saver solution. The screensaver allows communication managers to drive communication campaigns and corporate information directly to the desktops of employees.

The screensaver works in the same way as any ordinary screensaver with the exception that information is taken directly from Sabercom’s easy to use screensaver designer tool. The contents of the screensaver can easily be updated from one central location and information can be scheduled for certain times of day or days of the week. This is great as it means IT only need to deploy the screensaver software once and all updates can be easily made by the internal comms team.

Reception screen communication

Last week was a busy week - we caught the train to London to install a system of three screens then flew to Scotland to install a further four screens.

Both installations consisted of a reception screen to welcome visitors and internal screens to communicate corporate information with employees.

Our reception screen solution means you don’t have to be stuck with the same TV news channel. You can move the TV channel to one side and add in images,  presentations and welcome messages, all from your own PC.


A combination of compelling and eye catching information makes your reception screen the first point of contact. Great for employee announcements as they walk through the door, and an excellent marketing opportunity for visitors.
