Global Off-Price Retailer
This client is the leading and most successful off-price retailer of apparel and home fashions in the world. The Company focuses on large-format, value-oriented retailing concepts that provide merchandise well below regular department and specialty store prices.
Client Opportunity
- The client asked Niteo to assess requirements for future Internet development initiatives.
- While the client knew that portals would be a good fit for a collection of planned Internet projects, their project goals required validation. The objective of the project was to assess the current state and futures plans and determine the applicability of a portal platform.
- On a follow-up project, Niteo was asked to create a portal compatible design to guide the in-progress development of components for HR Intranet functionality.
Niteo's Solution
Niteo assisted the company with Strategic Vendor Selection, which included:
- Discovery sessions with numerous stakeholders
- Definition and management of a strategic portal vendor selection process consisting of a weighted evaluation scorecard and vendor visits
Following the initial engagement, Niteo was asked to implement components of their HR Intranet design. This involved:
- Analysis of the active development of the IIS-based HR Intranet solution, which resulted in learning that the information architecture and navigation model was not conducive to a portal framework
- Portal technical design implementation concepts that were articulated to facilitate future migration
Client Result
- WAs a result of Niteo's work, the team was able to provide the client with a discovery report of current state and future plans and a portal vendor recommendation.
- The acquisition of portal software was made, along with a comprehensive plan for installation.
- An HR Intranet was designed to be "portal compatible," saving significant rework for future migration to portal platform.
- A portal product technical design report was developed for future use.
