Intranet based Business Management System
The Situation
[Can we say who needed this and what the problem is they were trying to solve? Also better in full sentences]
Replacement and Upgrade of Intranet System
The Task
[More detail would be great. Could you tell us what Hive is and what made it so functional?]
We originally took on the project to cover bug checking and changes to a legacy .net application. The requirements for significant upgrades and new features meant that it was time to build a newer version, with functionality on par with the most of the features in Hive.
The Action / Approach
[We try to speak as part of the network, avoiding ‘I’ and first-person pronouns and using ‘we’ instead]
We used a base platform that handles user management and roles, and a basic CMS, with custom forms and parts dynamically added where necessary.
- Existing data and forms were rolled into a “dynamic data” module that can handle various data types on a page by page basis
- Shopping Cart/Product management and basic order management were created to allow for internal management of goods
- Notifications added to pages/data structures
- Concept of sub sites was added, with a master Intranet Site and 8 sub sites.
The Result
[Can we say how much money they saved and what the serious upgrade involved?]
- The client saved considerable money as they only had to develop one site and not nine.
- The client got a serious upgrade on their ability to manage data.
Here’s an internal version of Dynamic Data below
