Sheppard Robson intranet launched 13 Oct

After an intense summer, the Sheppard Robson intranet has launched and is now available to all client employees. Available in a standard web browser, content authors need no technical knowledge or specialist software, meaning the maintenance of important company information will become much easier.

Integration with Active Directory and the client's own photo library produces comprehensive staff lists with minimal authoring. Extensive personalization features allow users to tag their favourite pages and subscribe to internal company blogs. Employees can even see the latest press coverage about the company, listed on the intranet homepage.

To meet the client's timescales, we specified, built, installed and tested the application within an intense two-month period. We are very pleased with the results, and look forward to seeing how the system is used and extended in the future.

“Thanks very much ... you have done a great job and all the contributors are really pleased with the site. I ... appreciate all the effort you have put in and the good ideas you came up with.”

Nick Dunn, IT Director, Sheppard Robson

Northdoor website and CMS launched 1 Jul

After months of hard work, we are very happy that Northdoor's new website and its supporting CMS are up and running. The clean and professional visual design is supported by standards-compliant coding, integration with Salesforce.com and RSS.

The CMS is pretty clever too, supporting unlimited hierarchical pages, granular administrator permissions, full versioning and rollback, image management, microsites and all sorts of other modern time-saving devices.

We look forward to seeing how the new system will help the site grow, and hope Northdoor's users will reap the benefits of all the team's hard work.

“The project ... went like clockwork. Associative Trails did an excellent job and were very responsive to any issues and requests as they arose.”

Jon Milward, General Manager, Northdoor

All systems go for Northdoor 24 Feb

We are delighted to have just been given the green light to start work on specifying and delivering a bespoke CMS for Northdoor. Creativity have produced some cracking designs, and we look forward to doing the client justice with a slick CMS and some web standards magic.
