Grelb WCM helps Bishops Beds to supply Universities

28th Apr 2008

Being a good customer of ours, we were excited to hear that Bishops Beds have been selected to become an approved supplier for the North Eastern Universities Purchasing Consortium (NEUPC) which will see them supply our local Universities with beds, mattresses and other furniture.

Can we have some privacy please?

As part of becoming a member of the NEUPC Bishops Beds needed to make available certain information so that University Purchasing Departments not only knew what products were available and at what prices, but could also have access to procedures for ordering, delivery, training and support.

However, the data within this website needed to be accessible only by the Universities so it was agreed that we would create a new site on a sub-domain where any access required a valid user account, requested from and created by Bishops Beds themselves. Because each participating University was given an account, Bishops Beds can review statistics of exactly who has been visiting their site from which Universities.

As a refreshing difference from some of our projects, which can take months to complete, this site took less than a week from meeting to discuss the scope to go-live thanks to Grelb WCM.

We are also delighted to have been selected by Bishops Beds to complete a redesign of their existing Contract and Retail Beds Website to remove the Contract elements and make it a dedicated e-commerce site with many added features. Work is just starting on this with a go-live scheduled for mid June.
