GDC and CCM Announce Websites Built on the Sitecore Experience Platform
GDC is proud to announce the launch of two new brand websites built on the Sitecore Experience Platform for Carlisle Construction Materials
Chambersburg, Pennsylvania – July 29, 2020
GDC IT Solutions (GDC), a leading managed IT solution and staffing technology provider headquartered in Chambersburg, Pa., is proud to announce the launch of two new brand websites built on the Sitecore Experience Platform for Carlisle Construction Materials, LLC.
“It was a great honor to have a company like Carlisle Construction Materials (CCM) trust us to integrate a complex, multi-site Sitecore solution to help them drive customer engagement into the future,” shared Tony Masgalas, Director of Enterprise Sales at GDC. “Our teams have enjoyed collaborating with CCM to create this comprehensive Content Management System solution as their Sitecore Partner. We look forward to continuing our partnership with them and delighting their customers with more engaging enhancements to come.”
Robert Miley, Supervisor of Web Development at CCM added, “After several months of research, our team determined the Sitecore platform would be the best foundation for our initiatives for Carlisle SynTec Systems and Versico Roofing Systems. I was delighted to hear that our long-time partners at GDC had the qualified resources to assist us on this endeavor. From previous experience, I already knew I could expect greatness, but I have been absolutely blown away by the passion and dedication from everyone who has had a hand in this project. We spent multiple late nights together to ensure milestones were met, allowing us to obtain essential feedback from the field. GDC has been a true Sitecore Partner for Carlisle Construction Materials, and I am proud to say that we are continuing to work with them as we make changes to support our customers and initiatives.”
The brand websites recently launched include: Carlisle SynTec Systems (www.carlislesyntec.com) and Versico Roofing Systems (www.versico.com). These new websites are the first phase of Carlisle’s initiative to upgrade its customer-facing technology. The sites will provide an enhanced experience for users of mobile phones and tablets. No longer restricted by the limited functionality of the mobile app, users can still view and share critical documents such as details and safety data sheets, with additional features such as search, video streaming, and more.
CCM had selected Sitecore Experience Platform for their digital initiative and was looking for a partner that could help them through their journey to:
- Improve search and filtering for documents
- Improve collection features, highlighted by the ability to upload PDF files such as shop drawings or assembly letters
- Personalized content for contractors, building owners, and architects
- Streamline navigation
- Develop a new System Selector tool that provides recommendations for roofing assemblies based on geography, building type, and budgetary factors
- Provide enhanced “keep me logged in” functionality
- Provide a fully responsive web experience for optimal display on mobile devices and tablets
GDC and CCM worked together in designing, building and deploying a multi-site web roadmap and solution on the Sitecore Experience Platform in an XP scaled environment using Sitecore Helix, Microsoft Azure Cloud Services, Digizuite DAM asset management, and custom integrations with internal CCM applications.
