City of Edina, Minnesota
Putting the extra in extranet.
City officials. Police. Public works. Every city has multiple departments keeping it safe and running well for its citizens. That includes beautiful Edina in Minnesota. To keep all the facets of the city working, they needed one place where they could all connect. Looks like a job for a website, but wait, they needed a little extra.
Say hello to the Extranet.

Something Extra
An extranet is an internal website layer that contains access and communication portals for different departments. It’s useful for companies or organizations that need to relay information to only certain groups of people.
Before any coding began, we laid out the sitemap. It had to be airtight. We tracked the paths users would take and removed any unnecessary steps. By working closely with Edina, we were able to provide the best user journey for every department.
The extranet provided security and accessibility. Users could access private information through a secure portal, and team members could easily edit content through the content management system.
This project was complex, but our web developers and designers navigated every challenge with precision and problem-solving finesse. The result was a lean, mean extranet machine that worked on WordPress. That’s impressive stuff!
