April 1st, 2004 by Gruden

It’s all happening! With another move under our belt, we feel that we could all become removalists if the web game ever becomes too much. But exciting times for Gruden! Just in case you haven’t heard or noticed, we’ve just recently formed a Strategic Alliance with our long term Partners The Performance Technologies Group (PTG).

The best thing to do is read the press release, but what does all this mean in short? It allows us to provide you, our clients, with a one stop shop integrating superior usability, performance centred design, graphic design and application development.

Who are PTG and what do they do? PTG are a professional group of consultants, many of them psychologists, specialising in improving business performance and customer experience with technology. We’ve worked with them on a number of our larger clients such as Vodafone, QBE Mercantile Mutual and Department of Commerce to name a few.

We’re also excited to announce that Gruden has successfully won the bid for the Australian Institute of Management’s (AIM) new website, Intranet and associated websites! AIM will be utilising the powerful Shado MX CMS and Application Framework to deliver all their new projects.

I’d also like to announce that we’ve taken our relationship with Disney Channel Australia that little bit closer, where we are now project managing all online content for them! We now offer them the full package, starting from the concept stage / yearly planning and strategy to total development and maintenance services for the Australian / Asia pacific region. Nice hey!

It hasn’t all been wheeling and dealing, we’ve also had a number of websites go live over the last month; Safcol is now completed and live, as is Eastcoast Sailing which offers corporate and pleasure yacht sailing around Sydney harbour. Russell Kennedy Solicitors is also up and running and work continues on the ARIA website!! Yes – It’s still going – but ohhhh so close!

Anyway fellow G-Spotters make sure you check back next month as hopefully I’ll be able to tell you about another outstanding client/project that is coming on board!

And remember – The nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised.

Till next time!
