Innovation Digital has been working closely with The Weir Group and design agency Design Motive to deliver four new company websites for The Weir Group. The new websites, which launched in December, include a corporate website, plus three sector based websites.
Using design concepts from London agency Design Motive, Innovation Digital developed the websites using Alterian's Immediacy Content Management System (CMS). This powerful enterprise-level CMS is feature rich, with powerful workflow and permissions, multi-language capability, image editor and much more. The new Weir Group websites integrate Google Maps to plot office and service locations throughout the world; RSS news feeds, and interactively received Share prices.
Founded in 1871, The Weir Group is one the UK’s leading engineering firms, employing 9,000 staff worldwide. The organisation consists of three sector focused divisions - Weir Minerals, Weir Oil & Gas and Weir Power Industrial. Each division is both closely related and also independently successful, with leading brand name products in their specified sectors. Visitors to the three divisional websites are able to access highly detailed product descriptions and specifications.
Prior to the website launch, Innovation Digital trained Weir Group staff from countries across the globe on how to use the Immediacy CMS. Two two-day training sessions, which took place in Glasgow, were attended by staff from the UK, France, Italy, Netherlands, Canada, North America, USA, China, Chile, United Arab Emirates and Australia.
Innovation Digital feel privileged to have worked with The Weir Group on the delivery of their websites and will continue to support and enhance their web offering for the foreseeable future.
