We implemented the platform to manage a significant volume of content, procedures, and services, bringing together the institutional portal, the intranet, and its cross-cutting microsites.

2017 - 2020

The Colombian Institute of Family Welfare needed to consolidate a secure, robust digital ecosystem aligned with current regulations. The challenge wasn't limited to the public site: the solution had to organize the institutional portal, the intranet, and cross-cutting microsites, support a significant volume of content, procedures, programs, and services, and make it easier to comply with the Transparency and Public Information Access Law without centralizing all publishing in a single team. As an operational constraint, numerous owners needed to keep editorial autonomy within a shared architecture and shared publishing criteria.

Insights

  • The migration to Drupal 7 consolidated a common manager for the portal, intranet, and microsites, with a more stable foundation aligned with the digital government guidelines applicable to the project.
  • Modeling content and editorial responsibilities turned publishing procedures and services into a clearer, more distributed, and more maintainable process for internal teams.
  • Adapting content and microsites required preserving context, hierarchies, and transparency obligations while all the information was organized under a shared digital standard.

Conclusions

The architecture consolidated the institutional portal, the intranet, and the cross-cutting microsites into Drupal under a single manager. The teams responsible for producing institutional information took part, along with Coresis's Drupal, software architecture, and interface design profiles. This coordination made it possible to translate regulatory, editorial, and technical requirements into content models, journeys, and shared administration capabilities. The central decision was to separate each piece of content's reusable structure from its presentation, so the portal, intranet, and microsites could stay consistent without losing their particular needs.

The result was a platform that made decentralized publishing and maintaining institutional information easier under shared criteria. The documented impact is operational and qualitative: greater capacity to manage content, present services consistently, and meet transparency obligations from an integrated ecosystem. No traffic or efficiency figures are cited because the available case doesn't contain an authorized measurement to support them.
