James Fairclough and James Barnett report that progress is going well on the brand new CEMEX UK website, which is due for launch at the end of March. James Fairclough commented: “The new website look and feel, and platform were prerequisites for our CEMEX Go launch in April. By our first deployment on 30th March we will have completed a nine month project in just nine weeks!
We will be working on fixes for the first month in the live environment and our second deployment will be on 23rd April. We will then move on to a Phase 2 where we will be optimising the content through testing and improvement. This project has only been possible with the use of Agile philosophy- for those interested a modified scrum approach. We have had to be extremely creative with our solutions to make the deadline for the deployment next week… so please bear with us whilst we are working through fixes. However, we would also appreciate feedback and suggestions for moving forward.”
Well done team – particularly as much of this work has been “out of hours” due to collaboration with colleagues in Mexico.
