  • UK: New content management system to save Highways Agency 600k in costs

    The Highways Agency has launched its new website: www.highways.gov.uk. The revamped site, built by RedDot partner CDS, is expected to save the organisation £600,000 in operating costs over a 3 year period, as well as delivering critical real time information on England’s major road conditions including traffic headlines, weather forecasts and email alerts.

  • UK: Newport City Council gets results by streamlining content management system

    Newport City Council has put in a new IT system to help streamline business processes for the Council’s main website, intranet and web based content management system.

    A key aim was to provide visitors and staff with quick and easy access to information they need from a wealth of data available. It's good e-government at the back-end.

    Software from Zeus Technology, ZXTM, was used to standardise paths for all online documents. Seamless migration of over 24,000 documents to its new content management system would have been a labour intensive task - but this was automated using ZXTM’s intelligent scripting language, TrafficScript. Three lines of code enabled the web development team to dynamically rewrite requests that map into the new path name in a matter of hours as opposed to months - delivering a significant return on investment.

  • US: Washington: Content Management System Simplifies Collaboration on Fire Service Initiatives

    For the Washington Fire Chiefs (WFC) association, collaborating on legislative and policy efforts once meant sending individual e-mails to as many as 1,500 members across the state. When members individually responded, WFC staff would then combine each submission into a final document.

    All that e-mailing is over and the collating of member input is easier with a new content management system. “It saves us a tremendous amount of work and effort to get these policies, procedures, letters — whatever we’re working on — taken care of,” said Mike Brown, WFC executive director.

  • USA: CMS Gives Boston More Portal Traffic

    When Boston city employees who are nontechnical want to add or change content on the Boston Web portal,  they don't bother sending job orders to IT staff. They adjust the Web site themselves using an SDL Tridion content management system (CMS) that was deployed in December 2007. Removing IT workers from the process resulted in faster posting, more content on the site and 25 percent increase in Web traffic, according to Raj Pareek, manager of e-government services for Boston.
