Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council selected Alterian Content Manager to improve the performance, functionality, and scalability of its website, www.stockport.gov.uk.
“The website was originally an information portal. As demand increased for online services, Stockport extended the existing website to cope, but it soon became apparent that the best way to successfully meet the needs of our customers, both now and in the future, was to introduce greater scalability with a more functional solution,” explained Andrew Kirkham, Head of ICT Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council.
Stockport engaged experienced Alterian partner J2 Interactive to assist in the consultation and implementation of a new website strategy solution and selected Alterian Content Manager Enterprise Edition to deliver a cost effective solution to put its customer requirements at the heart of its website. With Content Manager, Stockport was able to migrate thousands of critical informational resources into a single CMS framework.
Stockport has further improvements underway to increase the robustness of the website and provide the capability to handle new peaks in traffic. Stockport MBC is also developing further solutions for delivering services with Social Media and Smart Phone technology.
