The Requirement

Involved Consult were engaged to support a major growth strategy, to transform their digital capability and build out their eCommerce Platform.

How we helped

As part of the Programme, Topdeck Travel required a complete rewrite of their eCommerce Platform that would both engage with their customers, facilitate high volume bookings and obtain payment. They required expertise to design and implement new features and functionality to the platform, establishing and guiding the websites architecture, ensuring high-performance and availability, whilst managing all technical aspects of the CMS.

The existing platform was based upon Joomla and the recommendation was to move to a Drupal CMS Platform. We initially analysed and implemented UX changes across the new website, identifying User Stories and User Journeys, UI wireframes and designs that strictly adhered to the comprehensive brand guidelines, with particular attention to check-out flow and trip pages. We then implemented the front-end designs via a fully bespoke Drupal 8 theme in addition to the back-end development work.

During this period, we worked collaboratively with stakeholders and existing key project teams including Marketing, Content, Web and Design teams.
