ODPM desc:Implementation of a content management system (CMS) to facilitate devolved web content creation and website management.
 
IDeA guidance:A Content Management System (CMS) can be defined as a tool that enables staff to create, edit, manage, publish and archive a variety of web content (such as text and graphics), whilst being constrained by a centralised set of rules, process and workflows designed to ensure a coherent, validated website appearance.

To fulfil this outcome councils will need to store website content in a database. Information should be added to this database - or edited – according to defined administration, creation, editing and approval procedures that will usually be managed and enforced using a dedicated content management system although other technical approaches giving the same outcomes will be acceptable.

The efficient management of web content is seen as an essential step towards the mainstreaming of websites as an access channel for services.

The LAWS National Project Content Management System workstrand particularly supports this outcome.
