This site has been developed over a number of years and provides a valuable and well used resource for NIG Brokers. Amongst others, the site includes a database of all current NIG Brokers which validates users from those companies allowing only them to apply for automatic access to the site. This is granted via a secure log-in procedure by an approved broker administrator or by NIG administration staff. User access to the various broker admin functions such as commercial quotes, personal quotes, broker community and a large repository of documents in PDF form is controlled by a system of user groups which automatically default to a set of privilages for that particular user type.
Because of the database functionality of the site a variety of management reports detailing user behaviour eg: log-ins, downloads, page views, can be viewed online by NIG admin staff giving them invaluable information for forward planning.

Pageworks have managed and produced Speakers’ Papers for FT Conferences since 1991. Originally in printed format, as time and technology moved on, these Papers became electronic versions and the ideal way to distribute them to conference delagates was via an online repository with a private, protected log-in.
Comprehensive statistics are available to FT Conferences allowing them to monitor popular content, the number of downloads and delegate activity within the site.

We were approached by Garry Matthews of Reflection Design to work with him in developing this site, during a re-brand for his client.
The site needed to provide a way of connecting to a third party website that Goodchilds use to manage their property portfolio. Currently, this provider does not supply an XML feed, so the solution was to build a ‘wrapper’ around the Property Search section to gain a design integration into the overall website.
This is a good example of a collaborative project with the design and site structure being supplied for us to adapt with our knowledge and experience to produce this functional site.
