Challenges:

• The CLS website contained many static pages that were updated by hand. This limited the client’s ability to keep the website updated with new content.
• The website’s overall look and feel was in need of an updated fresh look.
• The new website requirements included:
  • A modern look and feel that represents CLS’s breadth of clients and projects.
  • Scalability to allow the client to add and edit new client portfolios and projects easily.
  • Ability for potential employees to apply for jobs and submit their resumes, cover letters and writing samples online while allowing CLS staff to collect and mine this information easily through a backend tool.
  • A project intranet allowing CLS staff and their client to share documents with back and forth with one another.

Solution:

• Created an attractive, modern, easily navigable website.
• Created a flash piece on the homepage to convey CLS’s caliber of clients and extent of services.
• Implemented a Content Management System that allows CLS staff to easily update and add content on the website without the need for HTML or FTP knowledge.
• Created an online form to allow users to submit their resumes, cover letters and writing samples. Through a backend admin tool, CLS is able to retrieve these submissions and follow up on them.
• Created a front end interface for CLS clients to share documents with various CLS staff on certain projects. Through a backend admin tool, CLS is able to retrieve and add documents to share with clients.
