With our expertise and experience in organising content management, your resource-focus is more on business building activity, and far less on routine tasks of maintenance and administration.
Implementing Tridion successfully is not just about the technology. The first priority for us is to gain an understanding of how your organisation will manage its websites and online applications. This is how we ensure that we configure your CMS to facilitate and assist your existing modes of working, rather than trying to enforce new processes and practices.
So from the outset, we take the time to get to know how your online operations work. We’ll take on board the major factors such as how content is organised in the system, who has access to what and the actions they can perform.
Operational Model
You may be planning a centralised model, with your own internal web team taking responsibility for the entire site. Conversely, it could be a decentralised set up, with content and website responsibility devolved to individual territory teams or business units. Whatever route suits your organisation, we’ll work with you to define the best approach, based on our years of experience. And we’ll also help to assess the impact of changes, and the effect they may have on internal resources and training requirements.
Workflow and automation
We model editorial, approval, publishing and development workflows, to make sure that the governance procedures you require are put in place. Importantly, we’ll scrutinize how it will all work in detail, so that governance doesn’t interfere with or hinder your team’s day to day operational activities.
Wherever possible we’ll automate manual processes – giving your team more time to focus on activities that keep the website fresh and up to date.
Security and Access Rights
We’ll identify the logical roles and responsibilities you need to assign to your content management organisation, and work with you to specify security permissions and actions within Tridion. And everything will be fully documented, so as operations grow, enabling users to access the correct publications, folder and structure groups will be simple to administer.
BluePrint
Underpinning all these activities, our understanding of BluePrinting technology will help us inform you to get the most from your Tridion installation. It will clearly show how the installation will affect your operations, flag opportunities for reuse and define workflows for translation and localisation.
And the net result? A successful content managed website where you can focus your time productively on developing your content and marketing messages, rather than performing routine maintenance and administrative tasks.
