Federal Aviation Administration and Siteworx Develop Internal Collaboration Platform

RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Leading digital agency Siteworx announced the successful completion of a prototype internal collaboration platform for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

“Siteworx was vital to the success of developing this prototype internal project for the FAA”

The internal collaboration platform, called ATO Connected, has a variety of features including communities, message boards, and calendars. The prototype collaboration platform also provides employees the ability to “follow” other employees within the intranet and receive status updates on alerts and upcoming events. Siteworx was subcontracted by Chickasaw Advisory Services, LLC (CAS) to help design the prototype as part of a larger project for the FAA.

The custom collaboration platform, built on Adobe CQ5, allows FAA employees to communicate safely and securely through internal community forums. Additionally, the site helps facilitate top-down and bottom-up communication between FAA employees and executives. Employees can also customize personal news feeds and join discussions or groups based on their specific needs and interests.

“We anticipate that the prototype we developed for the FAA will become a useful and engaging internal communication tool that allows the FAA to efficiently complete their mission,” said Gregg Wyland, Siteworx Engagement Director for the FAA project.

“Siteworx was vital to the success of developing this prototype internal project for the FAA,” said Barry Burris, Manager at CAS. “Their professionalism and expertise provided an integral part of the FAA project, which enables two-way internal communication. This component was the most important factor within the entire project.”
