TharpeRobbins’ approach to employee recognition focuses on maximizing the experience of everyone involved in building a culture of recognition: the administrator/owner, the recipient, and the manager/participant. Each has unique wants and needs, yet success demands unparalleled service for all. At TharpeRobbins, we rely on technology to play a key role in crafting successful programs for all stakeholders.
TharpeRobbins Pinnacle technology platform is the engine that drives everything from initial notification, to placing an order, to providing survey feedback and analysis. With over 100 years of client experience and a dedicated, in-house technology team, TharpeRobbins’ platform provides rich, flexible, yet simple and rewarding experiences for both employees and administrators.
The Pinnacle platform can support events, certificate, or points-based programs. All that is required is a standard web browser and a user name and password. Because Pinnacle is a proprietary, hosted solution, TharpeRobbins takes care of the infrastructure investments, ongoing support and maintenance, and security management. With over $10 million invested to date, TharpeRobbins is committed to the Pinnacle platform and investing in future capabilities.
