Fusion Workshop has worked on the
Fashion Museum website since 1999 and those for the Bath Record
Office, Roman Baths and Victoria Art Gallery since 2001. The
Council has now engaged Fusion Workshop to provide a
future-proof Content Management System to carry over it over the
next seven years and beyond and enhance the delivery of its online
presence. The Alterian Content Management System (Immediacy
CMS) has been selected and the goals of the project are
to:
- Provide a future-proof platform
- Enable the Council to leverage its current
investment
- Delivering a robust, scalable and flexible website
- Maintaining organic search engine
optimisation and further enhance online reach
- Integrating the websites with existing
systems
- Enabling the marketing team to create and
manage online campaigns that deliver results
- Ensuring good usability and user
experience features
- Conforming to DDA (Disability
Discrimination Act) for web accessibility (W3C level 1-2)
“Since the start, Fusion Workshop has shared
our commitment to accessible websites and we are delighted that the
Immediacy migration will incorporate as standard best practice in
accessibility. Immediacy has automatic checks to ensure that
the sites continue to be accessible as the content grows. We
believe this strategy will allow the Council to remain a good
example to other councils and organisations on how heritage, which
is so vitally important, can remain accessible and we would welcome
them to come see how it’s been achieved.”
