MANAGE THE RELEASE PROCESS 

Ensuring the timely release of information is a paramount concern for any organisation. Hundreds and thousands of pounds can be lost if the launch of a new product is not given the advertising exposure it demands at the correct moment in time. Employees are likely to take poorly-informed internal decisions if not kept abreast of company protocol on the corporate intranet. The underlying conundrum is how to speed up the release of information; to ensure web content is easily referenced and moves around the organisation swiftly and in a controlled manner prior to publication. 

Workflow, Permissions and Tasking
WORKSsitebuilder’s comprehensive and definable workflow capabilities counter such problems by speeding up the process of releasing important information to your digital channels. Workflows set up for content approval pass information between designated content authors, editors and approvers. Workflows can be defined right down to a user-level (individual formatting options), with email notifications providing details of all outstanding actions. WORKSsitebuilder creates a link in the email that launches the browser and opens the corresponding page in edit mode.

Take the example of a building society issuing a press release on their website that profiles their new financial products. The content will probably be drafted within marketing; issued to product development to ensure accuracy, then routed through to a legal department to guarantee compliance with company policy. Having been appropriately edited, it is possible that the content will be placed in front of a translation team (internal or external) for conversion into other languages before finally been approved by management and signed-off for release. WORKSsitebuilder handles all these workflow stages and can be configured to suit the unique requirement of each of our clients. 

The WORKSsitebuilder Tasking facility extends the workflow functionality even further. Employees can now log tasks for the creation, amendment and publication of material as well as generate automatic reminders in advance of due dates and manage all outstanding and finished actions.

Version Management and Tracking Changes
WORKSsitebuilder stores all past versions of your web content maintaining a comprehensive audit history of who has made what changes and when they were made.

WORKSsitebuilder allows you to roll-back to previous iterations of web content. WORKSsitebuilder mitigates the risk of losing valuable information and ensures users are held accountable for the content they create, amend and publish.
