6 Websites, 3 Businesses, 1 New Online Presence

GE Power (formerly known as GE Energy) is an American energy technology company, owned by General Electric. In 2018, General Electric power plants produced one-third of the world´s electricity.

GE Power’s five segments needed their own branded websites. The company needed easy code replication across sites, decreased hosting costs, and multi-site functionality. GE Power required easy code replication across sites, decreased hosting costs, and multi-site functionality.

Our project resulted in IT resources being freed up at GE Power. They reduced the cost of hiring other agencies to make content changes, and improved security. After the site’s rollout, JAKALA took over all site maintenance, leading GE Power to only need the services of one IT company for all their website development needs.

GE Power had been restructured and separated into three businesses, and they needed a new online presence. GE Power’s five segments required their own branded websites, but developing and maintaining six different websites (five segments and the general GE site) along with several other country-specific sites was expensive and inefficient. They needed easy code replication across sites, decreased hosting costs, and multi-site functionality.

01

Modernized aesthetic

JAKALA modernized GE Power’s web presence by creating a common aesthetic across all sites based on GE’s unified branding. The site design properly adjusts to display on various devices, like smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. We designed a fluid layout with clean design and new graphics, which helped to display the most important information on the site prominently.

Delivered on time and under budget

JAKALA delivered a website on time and under budget for GE Power, and we also provided the professional presentation the website needed.
03

Improved accessibility and control

GE Power's updated site was able to display products in an accessible way on multiple devices. Content managers received training from JAKALA Drupal experts, so they were capable of making immediate changes to the new site.
