Content workflow
Typical workflow through edit to publication. Roles are configurable.
1
Create
Define the objective and success criteria.
2
Review
Confirm site, stakeholders and operating conditions.
3
Localise
Prototype or evidence the concept before commitment.
4
Approve
Validate technology, delivery and operational responsibilities.
5
Schedule
Roll out to the agreed sites and support model.
Digital systems still depend on the building
Consider physical requirements for each site environment.

Frequently asked questions
Can you integrate any CMS?+
Compatibility must be verified for the specific system, version and interfaces.
Do you provide an API?+
Any API capability is documented per solution and project scope.
Can systems work offline?+
Offline behaviour depends on the player, content model and required fallback.
How is compatibility tested?+
Through documentation review, access to systems and agreed test evidence.
Who owns the systems integration?+
Responsibility is assigned in the project RACI and contract.
Make every interface and responsibility explicit
Share the stack, site and operating model. We will identify required evidence, tests, owners and unresolved integration risks.
