The experience design and technology agency, Clockwork, is a results-driven and innovative company. Much like their name suggests, they are collaborative, effective, and reliable partners – helping their clients’ businesses and digital offerings run smoothly. Clockwork was founded in 2002 with the notion that great work and great lives can co-exist, which translated into the balanced, positive work environment for which they are known.
Clockwork’s solutions achieve transformative results for their clients. Their work falls into a few broad categories: consulting, strategic direction, and digital implementation. They create and implement enterprise-scale digital strategies, establish tools and processes for organizational change, and design and develop digital products. Along the way, they work closely with clients to value technology and see the opportunities in broad digital culture adaption.
In 2013, Clockwork received a 2% loan from the City to assist with the renovation and equipping of their new facility at 1153 16th Avenue SE. The new, larger location expanded their work space by adding several collaborative work rooms, a small stage, and a large gathering area. These additions both increase the amount of creative work space, and allow Clockwork to host community and mission-based events.
Last year when the City started the process to replace its public website and content management system, Clockwork submitted a bid to manage the project and provide strategic guidance, and they successfully won. Now, Clockwork is helping the City take inventory of its existing website and content, and determining the best steps and strategies to develop a brand new, more dynamic, user friendly and ADA- accessible website going forward to better serve Minneapolis.
