IMPAACT was working with a hand-maintained site, only accessible by two people on staff. Thus, content on the site was often formatted on an ad hoc basis, and older content was hard to update. Needless to say, the non-responsive site was time-consuming to edit.
As a part of our discovery process, we revealed an opportunity to comb through IMPAACT’s database to reinforce and standardize connections while also making them sortable and searchable.
Getting the site onto a CMS solution immediately raised its accessibility for IMPAACT staff. The director of IMPAACT Community Advisory Boards, who was previously working on a “website within a website,” can now manage their section of the site with a lot less friction, including functionality to have a bilingual site in English and Spanish.
