Bi-State Regional Commission: A Modern Digital Hub for Regional Collaboration
The Bi-State Regional Commission, a voluntary organization serving five counties and 43 municipalities in western Illinois and eastern Iowa, sought to modernize its digital presence to better serve its member governments and the public. To achieve this, BSRC partnered with interGen for a comprehensive website redesign, coinciding with a seamless migration to the latest Joomla platform.
Project Highlights:
- Website Redesign: interGen's Gold Website Design Package provided BSRC with a modern, user-friendly interface. The new design emphasizes intuitive navigation, allowing users to easily access information on regional programs, planning initiatives, and member services.
- Document Management System: Recognizing the importance of efficient information dissemination, interGen enhanced BSRC's document management capabilities, ensuring that reports, meeting minutes, and other vital documents are well-organized and easily accessible.
- Online Calendaring Solution: To improve engagement and transparency, an integrated online calendar was implemented, allowing users to stay informed about upcoming meetings, events, and deadlines.
- Web Accessibility Enhancements: The new website includes accessibility improvements, ensuring compliance with best practices and making information more available to all users, including those with disabilities.
- Subscription & Hosting Services: As an ongoing subscription and hosting client, BSRC benefits from interGen’s reliable hosting solutions, regular maintenance, and dedicated support, ensuring optimal website performance, security, and long-term functionality.
This collaboration has equipped the Bi-State Regional Commission with a robust, accessible, and future-ready digital platform, enhancing its ability to coordinate regional efforts and serve its communities effectively.
