NIBSC choose Fusionworkshop
11 May 2010
National
Institute for Biological Standards and Controls (NIBSC) have
launched a new facility to allow customers to order their vaccines
online.
Fusionworkshop created the shopping cart for the Alterian
Content Management System (Immediacy), with emphasis on security
and authentication. The team also worked with NIBSC to improve the
customer experience by reviewing the information architecture.
Other improvements were delivered in the A-Z Catalogue Listing of
Products and improved online searching.
NIBSC, a centre of the Health Protection Agency (HPA) provides
independent testing of biological medicines for the UK market, in
particular with vaccines for the UK children's vaccination
programme, and operates as an Official Medicines Control Laboratory
of the European Union for release of medicines onto the EU market.
NIBSC testing of products already released onto the EU market may
also be carried out when particular problems arise such as failure
of storage conditions or following adverse reactions in patients.
NIBSC has a leading international role in preparing, evaluating and
distributing International Biological Standards and other
biological reference materials.
