Back To Case StudiesCambridge City Council (CCC) believes in the community as a whole and every person in it matters and aims to make Cambridge a vibrant, socially mixed, safe, convenient and enjoyable place to live. To help make this a reality CCC wanted to address communication issues internally and approached Black Pig to design them a comprehensive extranet site to act as a comprehensive e-communications toolkit.
The aim of the extranet is to help satisfy requests from staff and external designers for further information about the council’s practices, members and logos for use in design campaigns and for media information. Because of the sensitive information featured on the site, CCC needed it to be secure and password protected, easily accessible and play host to a range of information including large high resolution logos and images.
The site created by Black Pig can only be accessed by users who have been granted access by CCC and features a wealth of information for both external and internal staff. Users can access templates and access information on how to write press releases and deal with the media, download high resolution logos in a range of formats and download information leaflets and templates for signs and posters.
As a mark of the sites success it was short listed for the Chartered Institute of Public Relations PRide award for best use of e-media 2006.
