Design

Deliver

Then we moved to ideate in Sketch, to establish the components structure and pinpointed which design elements we wanted our team to be able to modify in the CMS.

We used a Confluence page to keep track of the elements, and link back to the user stories.

The designs for each component, including all variations, were made on Sketch. These were then uploaded to Zeplin for the developers. Additionally, the designs were placed in a library, so we could quickly mock-up where and how they would be used across the site.

The developers began building the designs, but with the tight deadline and a brand new team on board - I stepped in to help with guidance on HTML & CSS.

Test

Once designs were in place, we completed UAT testing. This included device testing & cross-browser testing.

CMS replatform

Using Miro, we audited the website's page types and identified the areas where we needed content controllable by CMS.

Next, we categorised the different content types and created user stories on Jira for each component.

Over 7000 content items were migrated from an outdated in-house content management system, to a modern component-based CMS, Amplience.

I managed the scoping, prioritisation, assignment, status reporting, documentation, training, and a large chunk of the actual migration.
