Digital news delivery for leading proximity media solutions provider

Our client, a leading provider of proximity media solutions in Canada, faced several challenges in reusing existing inventories from multiple channels which eventually resulted in huge IT operations and third-party service cost.

To overcome these concerns, the client turned to Virtusa to build a new digital platform which could not only accelerate time-to-market but also improve topline revenue.

 

 

The Challenge

The key business challenges faced by the client include:

  • Drive more revenue through their site portfolio and react faster to market changes
  • Create a platform containing an inventory of reusable and responsive components
  • Reduce IT and content creation costs while eliminating third-party service costs
  • Leverage content across multiple channels
  • Support distributed author and publisher community
The Solution

We developed a digital platform to accelerate their time-to-market while improve topline revenue. The key highlights include:
