• Read more about Mobomo, LLC Won Three Awards from the 2020 Vega Digital Awards: Season 2

The Vega Digital Awards has released their 2020 Season 2 winners and Mobomo has proudly won three different awards:

• Centauri Award for NOAA Fisheries under the Science Website category
• Arcturus for NOAA Fisheries under the Government Website category
• Arcturus for the PRAC Pandemic Oversight work under the Government Website category

The Vega Digital Awards recognizes and honors digital content creators worldwide for their exemplary talents and creative minds. These awards are open to all, no matter the affiliations or experience of the creators. To evaluate the entries, a panel of experienced judges evaluates and critiques each entry, providing a rating on a scale of 100.

Mobomo is honored and proud to receive these three awards. We know how hard the two teams have worked from researching, designing and developing both the fisheries.noaa.gov and pandemicoversight.gov sites. Our hats go off to them and thank each and every team member for their dedication to the project and to the clients’ overall happiness with the work we’re conducting.

More about these projects:  

NOAA Fisheries:

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries, also known as the NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), is a federal agency responsible for the stewardship of the nation’s ocean resources and their habitat. Their services include: conservation and management of U.S. waters to promote prevention of overfishing, declining species, and degraded habitats. NOAA Fisheries manages five coastal regions broken down by department, fisheries management, science centers, and labs. Each office ran their own independent site creating inconsistency and overlap in content and design as each isolated digital property.

Mobomo partnered with NOAA Fisheries to assist in restructuring and redesigning their digital presence. Merging all their core web properties into one Drupal site allowed users to go to one destination to find and discover information they need. Mobomo focused on improving content efficiency, design consistency, and unifying NOAA Fisheries voice. Mobomo followed a user-centered approach that consisted of discovery, research, design, and validation phases to deliver a comprehensive, documented and validated user-centered design and information architecture that unified the 16 previously disparate web properties into one site.

Within one year, we launched the framework for their next generation site.

The NOAA Fisheries site is more than a conveyor of marine life information and research. It offers a large variety of information; from summaries of upcoming rules, permits, funding opportunities, to various types of helpful resources. Each section had its own challenges for the Mobomo team to learn and develop automated solutions around. The goal was to automate and simplify the content for users to locate, as well as for editors to post and manage.

The PRAC:

In 2020 the Coronavirus reached the United States calling for the development and passing of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). To help inform the public of the spending provided by the CARES Act, the PRAC (Pandemic Response Accountability Committee) and Mobomo teams launched PandemicOversight.gov. The overarching goal of this site is to promote transparency for the government’s spending in response to COVID-19 by displaying the details of who received the $2.6 trillion relief and how they will be spending it. The site also provides helpful resources for reporting fraud and funding abuse.

Mobomo’s objective was to redesign, develop and deploy a new website for the PRAC built using a Drupal content management system (CMS) and deployed into the Microsoft Azure cloud. The website needed to support displaying interactive graphics for showcasing Coronavirus relief funding, as well as various government reports surrounding pandemic response and instances of fraud, abuse and mismanagement of relief funding. Due to resource circumstances, the new website had only a 5-week timeframe for redesign, develop and deployment of the new website.

Within the tight turnaround, Mobomo successfully launched the new site. The layout was designed using Mobomo’s human-centered design process. This resulted in a modern and clean look that is easy for viewers to use and understand the data and funding information provided.

• Read more about NOAA Fisheries Wins Webby Award in the Science Category

NOAA Fisheries (www.fisheries.noaa.gov) has won the 2019 Webby Award in the Science category!

Started in the fall of 2016, the ambitious project focused on merging all disparate Fisheries web properties under a single architecture, is jointly-led by the Office of Communications’ Director Kate Naughten and Chief Information Officer Roy Varghese. With support from their teams, the new NOAA Fisheries website was designed and built from the ground up to better serve their mission as stewards of the nation’s ocean resources and their habitat.

With a new design and content management platform, NOAA Fisheries was created using UI/UX tools such as card sorts, surveys, and journey mapping. Utilizing the findings, NOAA Fisheries designed and built a website that caters to all of its disparate users, including fisherman, scientists, and students.

The analyses and designs paid off. Since the launch of the new website, the customer satisfaction score has increased by 10%, from 65% to 75%, with 96% of users stating that the information they were seeking was easily found. This combined with a mobile-first website has also helped increase site traffic by 29% year-over-year, including a 67% jump in traffic during Shark Week when compared to the previous iteration of the website.

Mobomo has been thrilled to be part of an award winning team at NOAA Fisheries and look forward to solving new challenges with new innovations.

• Read more about Mobomo Partnerships Win Silver in W3 Awards

The 13th Annual W³ Awards were just announced and two Mobomo projects were selected by The Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts as Silver winners! We are honored that The USO was selected in the mobile app category and www.NASA.gov was selected as a government winner in the web category. These awards celebrate digital excellence by honoring outstanding Websites, Web Marketing, Video, Mobile Sites/Apps & Social content created by some of the best interactive agencies, designers, and creators worldwide. These awards are also the first major competition that is accessible to companies of all sizes, from Fortune 500 companies to small startups.

The USO

Mobomo was able to recognize the USO and the mobile application that we partnered with them to create. This application fosters greater discoverability of locations where USO provides services and programs offered by the USO through its distributed locations and online. Prior to the discovery phase, USO was seeking to design, develop, and deploy a cross-platform mobile application that introduced an additional channel for the United States military service members and their families to better engage with USO centers and programs. Currently, there are 200+ USO locations that all create their own content. We were able to pull the CMS data and integrate it into the app so that the service member receives the content from the service center that they are physically at or that is most adjacent to them.

NASA

In addition, Mobomo also entered www.NASA.gov under the government category. In 2013, our team migrated www.NASA.gov —a site with over 250,000+ pages, 1.4 million assets, and 3 TBs of data—from a proprietary data center and content management system (CMS) to Amazon Cloud and Drupal 7 without downtime or service interruption. This was a colossal task: Mobomo completed the entire effort in just 13 weeks. The results were so colossal, in fact, that www.NASA.gov has won a multiple, highly coveted Webby Awards. Mobomo has continued to work with NASA in order to create a dynamic, user-centric, mobile-first site that simplifies the experience for every visitor. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for www.NASA.gov!
