How Tietoevry unified a global workforce with Templafy and Frontify

Turning brand vision into on-brand documents for every employee worldwide

Bringing two worlds together  

When Tietoevry set out to merge two established companies, Tieto and Evry, they faced more than an update to logos or colors. Uniting over 24,000 employees across 90 countries meant shaping a new identity while respecting each legacy and supporting thousands of daily workflows.  

Their objective was simple: help every employee live the new brand, from developers to client-facing teams, in a way that felt both natural and secure. They found the solution not in a single tool, but in the combined power of two. With Frontify and Templafy working together, Tietoevry had everything they needed to both define the brand and embed it consistently into every document.

    Building the brand foundation with Frontify

    To bring the new Tietoevry brand to life, the first step was aligning 24,000 of its employees around a unified brand experience. With Frontify, the team launched a centralized Brand Portal that became the single source of truth for all brand elements, including guidelines, design system, digital assets, and creative templates, accessible to everyone from day one. 

    The platform’s self-service nature empowered teams to quickly find what they needed, work more autonomously, and reduce reliance on design and brand teams. For example, it streamlined collaboration across more than 50 global web editors by integrating a web image library to power their website, which sees over 145,000 daily visitors. 

    As a result, Tietoevry established a future-proof brand foundation, one that scales with the business and ensures consistent brand expression while increasing speed to market.  

    “The combination of having Frontify as the Brand Portal and Templafy as the asset management solution for Office applications proved to be very successful in our brand launch. These modern and user-friendly tools facilitated a rapid and cost-effective adoption of the new brand and visual identity throughout the entire organization worldwide.”

    Making the brand actionable with Templafy

    While Frontify provided the brand foundation, Templafy made that brand come alive in the tools people use every day.  

    The integration closed the loop between creativity and compliance:  

    • Approved templates for everything from company presentations (PPT) to project management documents (Word) 
    • Automated updates so changes apply to every document, everywhere  
    • No need to break your workflow with all brand assets where employees need them  

    With Templafy, creating documents and presentations isn’t a compromise between speed and accuracy. Instead, every employee, from marketing specialists to back-office teams, can create compliant, up-to-date content with confidence. This matters even more for a company trusted to manage sensitive data and expected to meet strict regulatory standards.  

    Smarter content creation with AI

    Tietoevry also leaned into Templafy’s GenAI tools to improve content production while keeping risk low. The goal was to empower thousands of employees with smarter, safer ways to create documents, without exposing the business to unnecessary risk or errors.  

    What’s different about this partnership

    The story of Tietoevry, Templafy, and Frontify isn’t just about launching a new brand. It’s about enabling a global workforce to move quickly and confidently, even in complicated environments. By combining Frontify’s brand foundation with Templafy’s document automation and AI, Tietoevry didn’t have to choose between creativity and compliance.  

    Every team, no matter their role or location, was equipped to efficiently create accurate, on-brand documents. And with strong IT governance and enterprise-grade security, they did it in a way that respects the high stakes of their industry.  

    Moving forward, together

    As Tietoevry grows, their partnership with Templafy and Frontify continues to evolve. What started as a need during a company merger is now a daily advantage that helps people work smarter, connect to the brand, and support clients around the world.  

    This story shows how meaningful the right tech stack can be for the brand, for the business, and for every person building something new each day.
