WebWand Wins Wales & West Utilities Intranet Contract

September 18, 2006 - Newark, Delaware USA and Kettering Northamptonshire UK - WebWand is pleased to announce that it has been selected by Wales & West Utilities (WWU) to produce a redesigned Intranet site for the successful British gas transportation company.

WebWand has recently completed a highly successful redevelopment and launch of the new WWU website (www.wwutilities.co.uk). Graham Edwards, WWU's CEO, had this to say about WebWand's work on the new Website:

"Wales & West Utilities needed a new Website, and WebWand's reputation was already known to us. The brief was straightforward. Navigation had to be easy: the site had to look stylish but simple: and it had to be delivered quickly. WebWand did all that - and more. The team was easy to work with and they understood the business and its requirements in record time."

The new Web site brought great improvements in the following areas:

• Interactivity and feedback
• Ease of navigation and use
• Design and use of images

WebWand will be working with WWU to bring the same improvements to the Intranet during the redesign phase. Our brief is to produce a new site with the same design qualities as the new Web site while minimizing costs and preserving or modifying existing applications and systems.
