Galliford Try chooses Company Net for Website Build
Building on Company Net’s experience in the construction industry, Company Net has been appointed by Galliford Try to redevelop its Galliford Try Homes web site. We are delighted to be involved in this prestigious project.
Developing around 3,000 homes per year, in the South of England Galliford Try Homes is best known to consumers for homebuilding brands including Linden Homes, Stamford Homes and Midas Homes. In Scotland they also own Morrison Construction.
With numerous acquisitions, the company is keen to consolidate it’s brand position and ensure the websites of group companies are reflective of its leading market position and more able to connect with prospective customers.
The new site will be built on Sitecore’s .NET CMS platform, and will benefit from the rich variety of Content Management capabilities which this brings.
Sitecore News
Sitecore have just announced the launch of the new Online Marketing Suite on the 1st of October. This is a very exciting addition to the CMS product and allows for extremely good website analytics with categorisation and connectivity of visitor leads through to internal systems such as Dynamics CRM. We had the privilege of a demo of the new system at Microsoft World Partner Conference from none other than UK MD, Simon Bartolo and were very impressed indeed. We have been invited to the launch in London and will report back on the new features in more detail soon.
Company Net is an accredited Sitecore partner and proud to be building first class websites on this excellent .net CMS platform
My other SharePoint site is a Ferrari
You bet, we are right now in the final steps of re-launching our own website on SharePoint 2007. Its been a very quick process for the lads and hot on the heals of the new Ferrari website we couldn’t be in better company. We already have a great example of one our own clients, Project Scotland, who blazed the trail with SharePoint last year and put immense design and marketing effort into this Award Winning site which really blows away the misconception that these sites are restrictive for designers.
We have had some great design input ourselves from our good buddies at Digital Face and also some excellent content copyrighting form our Flare (our new Joint Venture Creative Digital Design House – more about this exciting news later) partners Shaw Design.
We practice what we preach here and using dedicated partners to infuse our work with expert skills and creativity to add to our own extensive capability is what we are about.
Our approach is to work in partnership with our customers to envisage, design and deploy, high impact, business value solutions, whilst ensuring knowledge & skills transfer to secure maximum self sufficiency for lifetime enhancements and support

SharePoint at WPC 2009
Hang on there, does sharepoint really work for websites, well yes. Here’s a shot from one of the many presentations at WPC 2009
It is a fact that allot of customers already using sharepoint for their internal needs such as Portals, Enterprise Search, Content Management and Document Management etc., do not know that the toolkit and development platform they are already invested in can provide their website also. By adding an extra licence from Microsoft, you unlock yet more potential. Working with a trusted advisor to guide you through to a solution by architecting and designing your SharePoint website, will further leverage your existing in-house skills which you have already developed. That’s ensuring productivity and real return on your employees skills and experience already.
So tap into that SharePoint investment you have made already and come and investigate the exciting new opprtunities to signioficnatly enhance and update your web presence with SharePoint 2007 and of course SharePoint 2010.
