Where did the project start?
The starting point
Earlier projects had delivered pages and departed. Routine questions about maintaining commercial fleet inquiries content depended on people who no longer answered email.
The problem it caused
Day to day with commercial fleet inquiries, staff were unsure how to request an update, test a form or establish who had approved a change. Routine website tasks stalled whenever the usual contact was away.
What did we change on the site?
Alongside the site, the team received a page inventory, maintenance instructions, contact details and a guided check of the route to an availability review by the fleet coordinator. Responsibility for fleet specifications and depot collection instructions is assigned to a named owner with a backup.
How long did it take?
25 working days after content approval, including staff review and handover.
Content approved
The short-term business vehicle rental signs off the content and the plan. The working-day count starts here.
Build
Alongside the site, the team received a page inventory, maintenance instructions, contact details and a guided check of the route to an availability review by the fleet coordinator.
Staff review
The client's own staff check every change on phone and desktop before it is published.
Handover
The change goes live and the team is walked through what is new and who looks after it.
25 working daysWhat changed for the team?
For commercial fleet inquiries, the team operates the site from its own reference document. Updates no longer wait on anyone's memory or diary.
Good commercial fleet inquiries pages matter; knowing how to maintain them matters more. The handover lets anyone here pick it up.
