Department of Labor Events Calendar
Business Objective: The Department of Labor needed a centralized place for disparate business units to enter public events, increasing both visibility and usability.
Technical Challenges:
- Integration with a legacy web site using server-side includes for templating
- Organizational issues meant that design and development teams were not well integrated. Design team needed rapid prototyping that could be usability tested with the target audience.
Technical Solution: An application consisting of an ASP controller that renders XML pulled from the database. The design team provided XSL stylesheets, enabling usability testing while development proceeded on the controller and model layers.
