Content Management System

Notice Description

City of Wolverhampton Council has gone through a three-year transformation programme to centralise customer contact and identify all transactional services - apply, book, pay, report, request etc. In parallel a channel shift initiative has been undertaken to optimise the current corporate website, establish digital standards/publishing model and all evaluate the 'digital real estate'. The organisation now has over 15 key websites as well as satellite campaign websites. We now require a CMS which: * Is a flexible product which will support our vision to consolidate websites to be housed under one solution * Has the ability to develop new subsites/campaign pages with varying style and attributes * Possesses effective workflow management and approval * May have 'bolt ons' which enhance the UX and 'handover' to self- serve. * Creates a seamless journey to encourage customer uptake of the digital 'call to action'. If you go to the following link and express interest you will see the requirements from there. https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=57f32e55-0aa6-e811-80ed-005056b64545&p=cdcfff6b-8cbd-e611-8118-000c29c9ba21
