Intdev wins Invest North West tender




Invest North West, a public benefit organisation is the official investment promotion agency for the North West Province. Its founding purpose is to promote trade and fixed direct investment, create employment for the people of the province and attract new and sustainable businesses. This is achieved through grant-in-aid funds from the public sector and other.

Invest North West saw the potential in our hosted Content Management System (CMS) and has awarded Intdev the notable contract to redevelop their website. The project takes on a broader strategy to ensure that the new site will cover all aspects of the organisation, detailing its activities, sectors and investment opportunities. We believe that our hosted CMS is the ideal solution for this initiative and a great tool to publish this type of information onto the web.

The organisation has a requirement to publish details about its activities, investment and trade opportunities to both a local and international audience. They have to promote investment and advise investors on how to do business, where Invest North West will assist and facilitate the process.

Intdev hosts CMS's for a multitude of clients. A CMS empowers an organisation to use the existing content publishing framework to become more flexible in creating, updating and publishing content online. It further ensures a consistent look-and-feel through its template driven online interface, ensuring content is presented in a uniform way and in line with a business’s corporate CI. The power of the CMS lies in the various preloaded modules that provide out-of-the-box functionality such as image galleries, article modules, forums, calendars, dynamic forms and other. This makes it extremely easy for a non-technical end user to continuously update the website without the need to specialised programming skills when working on the always accessible, online hosted CMS.

The current website is hosted with Intdev, and can be accessed at http://www.inw.org.za. We are very excited about this solution and look forward to deploying the redeveloped website in near future.
