Not all Client projects are created equal, sometimes they fill an internal need. When Ocean Spray came to us to organize and redesign their Grower’s Extranet, we jumped at the chance. The extranet is a site only accessible to the growers, agricultural scientist, and some of Ocean Spray’s corporate employees. The issues, the site was unorganized, confusing, and wasn’t responsive, which were big problems because the Growers used the site often to access important information such as financial earnings, pesticide regulations, board meetings, and so on. The solution, audit the existing site, sift through analytics, and gather user and stakeholder research from actual users in order to re-architect, re-design, and consolidate the site.
