Business Needs

Exposure to / surfacing of depth of KP content

Make the brand effective online – bringing Total Health to web

Clear, segmented and direct purchase path for consumers, brokers and employers

Better user experience – increased self service, increased retention

Reduced development costs / site maintenance / On-line Operations

3

User View of KP

KP is big – its all connected, with internal KP structures not readily recognized

Notion of site is driven by use of browser and links

Insurance and Health related content are big pieces - It’s not based on my doctor directly

“About KP” is part of core KP

Regional events, community sponsorship should be accessible

Information sharing across the web presence is contextual

Identifying Business Issues

Integrating “corporate” content – News, Media, Annual Reports, research activities

Maximizing access to “Insurance” (plans) / sales components but accounting for renewals by brokers and employers

Creating space for all B2B / “professional” sites including less consumer facing audiences (suppliers)

Policy around commercial oriented sites – Vision Essentials, Cosmetic Surgery

Maximizing impact of informational content that demonstrate KP commitment to the community – Community Benefits, weekly markets, events

Effectively integrating campaigns / mini-sites that support the brand – Thrive, Food detective, teen smoking

6

Addressing the Issues

An Enterprise Information Architecture:

The strategy that describes how the various entities of an enterprise’s web presence fit together.

A web strategy that aligns the user view of Kaiser with the business goals of Kaiser

EIA Models

8

Why 3 Models?

When designing an EIA model that will meet the needs of both user and business, one model does not appear to address all needs. These 3 draft models are intended to be thought starters and a means to debate pros and cons from a user and business perspective.

9

What are Entities?

Entities: Current stand alone sites Large pieces of key functionality such as physician,

facility and physician home pages

Cluster Entities: Similar sites based on audience types
