Investing in industry-leading web standards

The problem

As a leading Canadian multinational banking and financial services company, Scotiabank is committed to delivering an efficient and seamless online experience for their customers. However, with 50 corporate websites and 16,000 web pages to manage and no single tool to manage them, the bank’s digital team struggled with quality assurance, accessibility compliance, and SEO.

Also a challenge? Getting reliable metrics on web performance. Data was fragmented and each team had to pull their own data, which led to wasted time, misaligned KPIs, and inconsistent reporting to leadership.

The platform helped immensely with our operational excellence. By implementing policies and utilizing modules within the Siteimprove platform, we were able to scope the scale of our website errors.
