Bath Heritage Services
ColdFusion to .net migration and Alterian CMS
implementation
Bath & North East Somerset Council Heritage Services
encompasses five websites:
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
existing ColdFusion platform will be replaced by .net and
content migrated over. The Alterian Content Management
System (Immediacy CMS) has been selected and is being used for all
sites under a single licence.
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.”
