The collaboration made for a new way of thinking in terms of working methods, and changed our view of coding and content development in parallel.
The editors at Täby Municipality were able to start adding content to the new website while Valtech was writing the code for the new platform in Optimizely 10.
We delivered simple, unfinished pages at an early stage that the municipality’s two editors immediately started adding content to. They saw everything being built up as the site was being coded. New functionality fell into place every day.
The integrated approach made for both speed, higher-quality code and a high-quality end product. The municipality and Valtech used a Scrum-based approach, developing the website step-by-step in three-week iterations.
We were able to modify and fine-tune the code as we went along in order to work in the content.
The new website is optimised for mobile phones and tablets. This is important because half of all the visitors to Taby.se now navigate to the site using their mobile phones.
Our close cooperation with [Valtech] – we worked at their offices several days a week – enabled us to build a really good, modern municipal website in fewer than six months, and without the delays and problems that usually pop up along the way.
