122 websites launched globally for Volvo Construction Equipment

Volvo Construction Equipment is among the world’s leading manufacturers of articulated haulers and wheel loaders, and one of the world’s foremost manufacturers of excavation equipment, road development machines and compact construction equipment.

Volvo Construction Equipment reached out to Stendahls who offered to deliver a complete digital solution that meets todays’ modern and mobile requirements, as well as the client’s demands for efficiency and performance.

Now all 122 sites have been launched, and Stendahls have helped the client secure their global online presence for future demands. The team at Stendahls has been responsible for delivering everything from the back-end development of building the platform, hosting the finished sites, to handling roll-out, ongoing maintenance and support. Using Sitecore along with our in-house built Product Information Management System, as well as working in a small agile team in close collaboration with the client, we managed to keep the ambitious time plan.
The new websites have a clean design and a better user experience for the visitors, and the delivered customised platform offers a much improved workflow in terms of web content management. Stendahls were also responsible for face-to-face training of local editors, traveling to client offices in Europe, Asia and South America.

Stendahls started development in June 2015. Following months of gathering and populating content, the first site was launched on January 25 2016. In September 2016, all of the 122 websites had been launched.
