LA Bureau of Street Services

StreetsLA faced a critical technology challenge that was impacting both their public-facing operations and internal efficiency. Their existing website was built on Drupal 7, a content management system reaching end-of-life, creating significant security and maintenance risks. The visual design was outdated and reflected poorly on the organization's brand as a forward-thinking public works department.

HAPI at UCLA

The Hispanic American Periodicals Index (HAPI) at UCLA relied on a system of Excel spreadsheets, printouts, legacy PERL scripts, and physical filing to manage their indexing operations. With no centralized digital workflow or validation, the system was inefficient, error-prone, and difficult to maintain. [iS2 Digital] was hired to reverse-engineer and replicate the system digitally, capturing business logic and streamlining internal workflows.
