Media 1 Productions, one of the UK's leading organisers of corporate events and conferences, approached Web Foundry looking for a bespoke event management platform.

Designing a bespoke event platform

Media 1 had previously identified a number of off-the-shelf event packages which came with a wide range of features they didn't need. To avoid paying a higher price for unnecessary functionality, Web Foundry would design a custom-built platform with core features, making the system cost-efficient and easier to maintain.

understanding user requirements

Web Foundry held an informative Discovery Session with Media 1 to establish their precise needs through a series of ‘user stories’. Armed with this information, we built an interactive prototype so that Media 1 could test the system before taking it to the next stage of development.

Easy updating tools

Once the platform was fit for purpose, we built a Minimum Viable Product using Joomla Content Management System (CMS). Full training on the system was provided enabling Media 1 to manage all their own content. The responsive design means that updates can be made from any device, be it a desktop, tablet or mobile.

iterative process

User feedback gathered through the tool is used to continually refine the product so that it meets user needs.
