Project Brief
Pulsion has worked with OneSearch for almost 20 years acting as a complementary extension to their own internal IT team. OneSearch recognised that peaks and troughs in IT project activity were becoming a challenge to manage internally and were also keen to have access to a wider range of technical skills quickly available as and when required.
OneSearch were looking for a technical resource they could work in partnership with and call upon as projects dictate to accommodate fluctuating demands and remove the need to recruit internally, providing them with greater flexibility. They also recognised that a specialist technology partner would be required to recommend the best development approach to the CMS and support of the solution on an ongoing basis.
Solution
After working with OneSearch to develop an understanding of their core business objectives, needs and wants, Pulsion illustrated their depth of technical expertise in software development, their flexible support and maintenance offering and their ability to deliver on-time and within budget.
OneSearch’s CMS solution was migrated away from a desktop based application to a web solution saving them considerable infrastructure costs overall. OneSearch can also enjoy the peace of mind that their business-critical system is in safe hands with Pulsion’s support and maintenance service.
Following the re-development of CMS, Pulsion continue to provide ongoing development, support and maintenance of the system. OneSearch now work collaboratively with Pulsion’s support and software development team as if they were an extension of their own in-house IT department. This flexibility provides OneSearch with access to additional resource even at short notice as demands or skill requirements dictate. Pulsion’s software development team offer advice and guidance around the continual development of CMS to take advantage of technology changes, efficiencies in operation and reduction in system costs.
Result
The evolution of business-critical systems involved in this project has resulted in significant reduction in infrastructure costs for OneSearch.
