ICS Websites

Goals

  • 3 areas: marketing/user training & support/internal docs
  • Other teams have a similar model:
    • RIS
    • REDCap
    • MDClone
  • Build off others successes but not their mistakes

Marketing Site

  • changeless core, less change, more "customer experience"
  • Focused on acquiring new customers
  • Marketing focused

User Training

  • More change, more technical details
  • Self-service support
  • Instagram example

Internal Documentation

  • Most change, most technical details
  • Workers spend up to 8 hours per week looking for info
  • "if we can't explain it to ourselves first, then we shouldn't be explaining it to external users"
  • ...Insert ICS internal docs image...

User Support
