Ericsson's pie which never goes out-of-date

Ericsson have recently commissioned Beaver Design to create a user-friendly calendar for their intranet. The calendar displays upcoming corporate events with the year broken down into sections, in the form of a pie graph.

Ericsson is a long-standing client of Beaver Solutions (sister company to Beaver Design) and we are proud to continue the relationship with web design.

A staff member using the calendar can highlight a month for a short bullet point breakdown, or select the month to see each day seperately. When a member of staff finds an event they are interested in, all they need to do is click a link which puts the event in their Outlook diary.

Events can be added direct from event management's Outlook system and managed on the calendar through a CMS system. This friendly, simple and unique calendar gives Ericsson another effective way to communicate with their staff.

Beaver designed website is finalist for award

The School Governors’ One-Stop Shop (SGOSS) “Fresh Faces” website was a finalist in the Third Sector Excellence Awards 2008. The website, design by Beaver Design, was shortlisted amongst some strong competition, but was beaten by Leonard Cheshire Disability.

The Third Sector Excellence Awards are intended to recognize and celebrate the vital work done by the voluntary sector and the role they play “as the conscience of society”.
