California Pizza Kitchen
Project Overview
California Pizza Kitchen hired us to design, build and maintain a custom-built intranet from the ground up. Human Resources needed to distribute and maintain up-to-date policies, and Finance needed to receive and distribute reports to restaurant managers.
Solution
We worked with the executives at CPK to design, from the ground up, a custom intranet connecting corporate to every one of their restaurants. The off-the-shelf system they were using was clunky and could no longer grow to meet their needs. The project included executive requirements gathering, clarifying institutional nomenclature, system and user information architecture, graphic design, systems design and application development.
