Thomson Specialist Holidays Group
Project summary: Thomson web-portal redvelopment and content management.
Specialist tour operator Thomson SHG re-vamped its entire e-commerce capability. Amethyst project-managed the redevelopment of product sites and implemented an entire Content Management programme.
Amethyst project managed two streams in the SHG Web Development Portfolio;
Thomson Portal redevelopment: bringing a number of sites to the corporate portal as on-line bookable products; working through requirements, wire-frame and graphic design, back-end integration with Brochure CMS, Special Offers CMS and Reservations systems
Content Management: feasibility study, package selection, planning and implementing the migration from a failing, outgrown CMS to the EPIC (Thomson corporate) CMS platform.
This work-stream included project-managing a Tactical Content Project to ensure websites can be delivered for Portal and non-Portal products in the SHG programme. This required revising the authoring workflow across multiple product teams.
