Wyndham City, a local government organisation based in the southwest region of Melbourne, undertook a competitive tender selection for the redevelopment of their website and chose us to deliver this new site on Drupal.
Context
Wyndham City wanted to migrate their site onto the Drupal content management system, requiring a more intuitive, well-designed and searchable website that would provide easy access to information and online services for their residents and ratepayers.
About the Client
Wyndham City Council looks after a designated growth area of Melbourne, currently ranked as the third fastest-growing local government area in Victoria.
The Solution
Commencing the project in early 2016, we took an agile approach to redevelop the Wyndham City website within a very tight timeframe, launching in July 2016. We worked collaboratively with the Wyndham City team to develop a new content architecture and site design, as well as prototyping functionality and setting up the platform to deploy content early and throughout the project to meet launch deadlines.
THE RESULTS
Hosted on the Microsoft Azure cloud hosting platform, the new and fully responsive Wyndham City website has been very well received by users. As one of our first Drupal 8 projects, we used what we learned to contribute back to Drupal 8 where core, or contributed functionality, needed further enhancement to meet requirements. We provided Wyndham City with a very efficient and cost-effective method of making the move to Drupal and our engagement continues in the form of support and ongoing enhancements to the site.
