Problem & Challenges
One of our launching customers is AkzoNobel, a leading company in the chemical industry that has always been at the forefront of adopting innovative solutions to streamline their operations and drive growth. They approached us with a problem they were facing in their digital landscape. Specifically, they were unsure about the size and scope of their website portfolio, which was hindering their efforts to implement a Cookie Management Platform.
Moreover, AkzoNobel was struggling with a lack of centralization in the configuration management of the project. This lack of centralization made it difficult for them to get a clear overview of the progress and potential challenges they might face. Since a well-managed digital landscape is crucial to the success of any business, finding a solution to these issues was imperative for AkzoNobel.
A firmer grip on their external websites
To successfully complete the CMP integration project, AkzoNobel had to conduct a thorough analysis of their website portfolio. This helped us understand the components and how they fit together, enabling us to make necessary changes for a seamless integration. Through a comprehensive assessment of the existing web infrastructure, we identified potential challenges and developed strategies to tackle them, resulting in a proactive approach. As a result, we delivered a smooth and successful integration project for AkzoNobel.

How did we help AkzoNobel?
As a part of our onboarding process, we have manually imported all DNS zones. This helped us to correctly identify and categorize all the applications used within the company. By organizing these applications based on their platform, business unit, and country, we were able to provide AkzoNobel with valuable insights and support.
Moreover, we have also onboarded an offshore support partner to help with the platform’s implementation and utilization. This has been successful and allowed AkzoNobel to take quick and effective actions based on the gathered data and information.
- Comprehensive overview of the total digital landscape.
- Fully automated insights into website compliance with regulations such as GDPR and AVG.
- Scope of live customer-facing websites and non-production domains.
”With the help of the Nixon Platform we finally have a complete, realtime overview of our all our websites and domains. The automated smart scanners saves us hours of work and make sure we are directly notified when our compliance framework is not implemented correctly.”
