EMERGENTBIOSOLUTIONS

Emergent Biosolutions (EBSI) is focused on providing specialty products for

civilian and military populations that address intentional and naturally

emerging public health threats. EBSI is strongly committed to the highest

standards of ethical conduct and corporate governance, in order to improve

the quality of life for people worldwide. Meanwhile, North Studio’s job was

to improve the quality of their website.

Drupal Upgrade, UX Design, Digital Strategy, Support

THE PROJECTAn Existing Drupal SiteEBSI contracted North Studio to support their

existing Drupal site in 2013. At the time, their

site suffered from lack of responsiveness,

lagging speed, and an outdated back-end

that was difficult to manage and update. This

provided for an ineffective and poor quality

user experience, and it created difficulties for

site editors and administrators. And, these

pain points needed to be resolved in their

Drupal 8 rebuild.

OUR WORKDrupal UpgradeEBSI came to North Studio using a Drupal

platform. And, after discussion and

assessment it was determined that remaining

in Drupal and moving to Drupal 8 would be

the most effective and scalable approach for

their corporation.

UX DesignFCI Creative generated the design files and

consulted with our team to ensure that their

designs would address usability concerns,

work into a Drupal 8 framework and provide a

stunning visual experience for the end user.

Digital StrategyAt the time of their rebuild, internet marketing

was not high on the list of requirements for

EBSI – barely at all. However, it was high on the

list of priorities for their Manufacturing

Expertise department. In saying that, EBSI

partnered with Stikky Media to boost the

content directly related to Manufacturing

Expertise and have been supporting their

marketing initiatives post launch.
