NIDirect is Northern Ireland’s version of Directgov with the same concept of providing Government information from one main source, rather than citizens needing to understand Departmental functions and structures.

It was a difficult project which seen us migrating content from Oracle to Livelink WCM using Vamosa. The editorial team, franchise managers and content authors worked furiously since the New Year to update every page on the site, a mammoth task which is still ongoing. On the design/development side of things we were challenged so much that the site underwent a complete redesign in just 24 hours last weekend. I’m still working on tidying up code etc but it’s been great to see that the initial feedback we’ve had has been very positive.
