Current Phase: Delivery Phase
Due to the size and functionality of 桃花社区视频's website, our vendor needs additional time to complete the site delivery. In consultation with the WRP stakeholders, the WRP team has decided to delay the launch of Wave 1 until after the start of the fall semester.
Project Phases
Licensed Acquia Cloud and Acquia DAM
COMPLETE Fall 2020
桃花社区视频 acquired Acquia Cloud and Acquia DAM as well Drupal, which will replace Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) as our content management system.
Identified Agency Partner, KWALL

桃花社区视频 worked with KWALL - a premier web design agency specializing in higher education websites - to develop a website that is modern, accessible and creates a cohesive user experience that tells the Monarch story to the world across all platforms.
Research and Discovery Phase | Digital Strategy & Planning
COMPLETE March - June 2021
Determined which features and technologies to implement through stakeholder interviews, student and faculty/staff focus groups & agency best-practice recommendations.
Design Phase
COMPLETE June - December 2021
Developed a comprehensive digital design standard that leverages the 桃花社区视频 brand using existing brand guidelines & graphic identity. The designs were shared with project stakeholders, students, faculty, staff, and campus partners at multiple stages throughout this phase.
Development Phase

Build and deploy the platform for the new content management system (CMS).
Delivery Phase

KWALL will deliver the site to 桃花社区视频 for content migration, QA periods, and testing before the site is live. The content migration will occur in multiple phases, with the first-wave of pages being launched when the new website goes live in the Fall of 2022. The Web Redesign Core Team will be working with units across campus to identify which wave they will be a part of. The schedule of waves can be found here:

Migrate Remaining Units & Content to New Platform

The Website Redesign Core Team will continue to work with campus partners to migrate all content from AEM to Drupal, until all pages are migrated to the new content management system (CMS).
Decommission Adobe Experience Manager (AEM)

Once all content is migrated, 桃花社区视频 will decommission AEM and be functioning fully on Drupal.
