\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\tDEPT\u00ae achieved a podium finish at the 2021\u00a0UK Dev Awards<\/a>, scooping the award for \u2018Best Deployment of a CMS\u2019 for its work with St. James’s Place wealth management (SJP).\t<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\tDEPT\u00ae beat stiff competition from CTI digital and kitty to take home the top prize, which recognises the exceptional work DEPT\u00ae\u2019s technical team has delivered for SJP.
\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tSJP is Britain\u2019s largest wealth management firm, delivering services through thousands of independent businesses (Partners) operating under its umbrella. SJP turned to DEPT\u00ae to build them a centralised solution for managing content at scale across thousands of sites, whilst allowing Partners to express their own voice. DEPT\u00ae applied its expertise in large scale content management to develop a solution that meets the complex requirements of SJP\u2019s large organisation.\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tDEPT\u00ae took a headless approach, implementing\u00a0SDL Tridion<\/a>\u00a0to provide flexible, multi-site management at scale. A separate system was built to manage dynamic data, and Salesforce CRM was also integrated. SJP now has a strong technical architecture and base platform built in .NET. The digital framework supports the future of SJP\u2019s Partnership programme, with a strategy to scale up its Partners alongside the business. It adds strength to its brand with unification across its entire digital estate, as well as ensuring compliance.

\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tDEPT\u00ae\u2019s technical solution enables SJP to manage +5000 websites from a single content management system.
\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tBrian robinson, UK managing director, said, \u201cDEPT\u00ae and SJP have worked together for over two years on this solution, and it\u2019s one of the largest and most complex projects DEPT\u00ae\u2019s UK team has ever undertaken.\u00a0We are extremely proud of the solution we have delivered; it\u2019s proven to be a game-changer for SJP, saving them time, money and accelerated their digital business to ensure that they, and their Partners, are future-ready<\/em>.\u201d
\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tOther winners included DEPT\u00ae\u2019s client bright horizons, who won B2B website of the year for\u00a0The Parental Leave Toolkit<\/a>; an online platform for both managers and individuals to supporting and coaching them through parental leave and return to work .
