Knowledge Transfer

We give you the keys to the car, and the knowledge on how to drive and maintain it. Our definition of success is when you feel a sense of ownership in your new site. We’ll work closely with you throughout the project to do continuous training as well as provide site documentation, but can also conduct training after launch.

Palantir is an Acquia Preferred Partner and has worked on numerous projects in collaboration with Acquia since 2008. Nearly half of Palantir’s development team is Acquia Certified. We also partner with Pantheon for hosting, Siteimprove for accessibility testing, and Lingotek for multilingual needs. Combining our talents with our partners’ expertise ensures an amazing digital experience for you.

There are certain topics we get asked about pretty consistently. To make it easier to share, we’ve created collections of all our writings, case studies, and other information around those topics.

Collection

Planning

“Measure twice, cut once” is an old saying that persists for good reason: the more one plans, the better the outcome. Palantir approaches every project with a great deal of planning to ensure the right materials are in place, costs are accurate, roles and responsibilities are outlined, and everyone’s expectations are properly managed.

Business Strategy

The web has fundamentally changed the way that businesses and organizations engage with their customers and audiences. Palantir is here to guide you through the process of digital transformation by helping you to strategically define your needs and goals and to ensure that you have the tools you need to achieve your mission.

Collection

Security

Open source software has a decided security advantage over proprietary systems. Because it is created and reviewed in public, there are more opportunities to find any security gaps and correct them. Since the software is open, clients can also assess and correct any concerns as they see fit. When properly used and updated, open source sites are some of the most secure spots on the internet.

Collection

Design & UX

Good design and UX is so simple, yet so complex. When done well, it seems effortless and intuitive. But don’t be fooled: color choices, navigation decisions, hierarchy, SEO decisions, and more translate directly into conversions and quality customer service. Good design is good business.

Collection

Development

In order to create ambitious digital experiences, it’s critical to have tools that are adaptable, expandable, and innovative. Having people with those qualities isn’t bad either. Having both is a combination that results in outstanding work.

Collection

Governance

Governance is the most important part of a website that gets the least amount of attention. While design and technology are important, the rules of your governance plan — who owns and edits content, who has access to make changes to the site, what are the standards to follow in the maintenance of the site — are what ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of your new site after launch.

Collection

Content Strategy

Your content is why people come to your site in the first place, so it’s critical that it be accessible, easy to find, and speak in the right tone. We’ll work with you to ensure your content is well structured and properly presented for the best possible user experience.

Collection

Accessibility

A website is accessible when everyone — regardless of ability or disability — can use it to get the information they need. At Palantir, accessibility is fully integrated into our process from the start. Because 20% of website users have a known disability (and that doesn’t include those with temporary or undiagnosed disabilities), we’ll make sure your site is compliant with current standards. It’s just the right thing to do.
