Experience

A small selection of websites that we've worked on:

Property Scout – developed in Drupal

Property ScoutThe Property Scout takes a new approach to the property market. Built in Drupal, the site enables potential buyers/tenants to register free with the site and to create searches for the sort of property they are looking for. Meanwhile, estate agents also register with the site and their available properties are automatically imported into the site and updated on a daily basis via an XML feed.

The system then runs regularly processes to compare property details to buyer's/tenant's search requirements to find suitable matches. However, where The Property Scout differs to other matching services is that the matches are initially sent to the agents, rather than directly to the buyer/tenant. The agent then has the opportunity to review the match from a human perspective to evaluate whether or not the match is indeed relevant to the buyer before then sending the details onto the buyer if suitable.

Walking For Health – developed in Drupal

Walking For HealthAdaptive have hosted and maintained the original version of the Walking for Health website for a number of years and were Natural England's top choice for providing an updated, enriched version of the site when the project was put out to tender earlier in the year.

The project will take place in a number of phases, with phase one being to replicate the existing site in Drupal, providing a brighter, cleaner front-end design together which a much more intuitive, flexible and easy-to-use content management system. The results were launched today and have already been received very well, both by the team at Natural England and site visitors alike.

RISK Health and Safety Training

RISK Health and Safety TrainingThe website - www.rsms.co.uk - combines information about the company and its courses with an online course search and booking service.

The structure and content of the site have been carefully crafted in association with our search marketing company, Number 1, to ensure that the site ranks well naturally for the key search terms associated with the company.

Vent-Axia Ltd – developed in Drupal

Vent-Axia LtdVent-Axia are international manufacturers and distributors of heating, ventilation and air conditioning products and required a new-look website to showcase their industry-leading products.

Working closely with Vent-Axia’s marketing, product and customer services teams, Adaptive developed a new e-commerce website for the company within Drupal. We believe this is the only Drupal site that integrates with IBM U2 UniData using Redback Objects.

The site is also integrated into Vent-Axia’s own internal product, customer and order management system so live stock levels and prices are displayed on the site and orders placed online flow seamlessly into VA’s internal systems.

Aimhigher Nottinghamshire: Online activities planner – developed in Drupal

Aimhigher Nottinghamshire Activities PlannerFollowing our previous work with Aimhigher Nottinghamshire, Adaptive were approached to build a new site for them to highlight their activity program. The site contains a large amount of information so it was important for the information to be presented in a clear, logical and attractive manner.

Utilising Drupal’s key content management functions such as CCK and taxonomy, together with a set of custom-designed templates, Adaptive produced a colourful and well-structured website which delivers the information clearly to the target audience.

“Adaptive have quickly grasped the complex nature of our business and the diversity of our target audience and consistently deliver creative solutions to meet our very individual needs.”
Samantha Gibson, Aimhigher Nottinghamshire

WorkSpace mobile workforce management – developed in Drupal

Drupal workflow managementWorkSpace is a mobile workforce management system that allows complete control of the work force regardless of their location. With extemely powerful stock control, resource / job allocation by skill or location and a PDA/iphone timesheet interface, this software is almost complete and ready for market.

This software has been developed in conjuction with one of the largest independent asset management companies in the UK. We are extremely excited about this project as we believe it demonstrates the ablity of Adaptive to understand the requirements of a fairly complicated business and produce a system that enables the business to grow and save significant costs from tighter control of the work force and stock levels.
