Granicus govAccess Web-Hosted CMS

Kern County is looking to implement govAccess by Granicus, which is a cloud-based content management system, targeted for local governments and intended to modernize the County’s public-facing website. Some of the advantages to this system include robust content management down to the department levels, modern and responsive designs built with a mobile-first approach, and the ability to rapidly expand or develop new sites and content.

The first phase will include the county’s main domain, www.kerncounty.com, as well as www.kerncountyhealthbenefits.com and www.kerncountyemployees.com. This solution is structured to accommodate other departments that may wish to migrate on to this platform and participate in a shared experience and consistent branding.
