Project Introduction
My Club Election is the brainchild of the team behind My School Election, a digital voting platform we helped bring to life in 2020.
The idea behind both is simple: running an election doesn't have to be complicated. Having already streamlined the process for school boards, the team saw an opportunity to bring the same benefits to clubs, sporting organisations and corporate bodies.
The goal was to build on the existing technology, introduce a fresh look and create a standalone product for a different audience.
Challenges
From nomination forms and declarations to automated communications, My School Election was built with school boards in mind.
Adapting it for clubs and organisations called for a few changes. School-specific fields and terminology had to go, nomination forms needed simplifying, and the public-facing website required a new identity.
At the same time, it was important to keep the two products independent, so future updates to one wouldn’t affect the other. All without spending time and resources rebuilding functionality that already worked.
Solutions
We used My School Election's proven voting technology as the foundation, focusing development on the changes that would make the platform work for clubs and organisations.
Key features include:
- Refreshed website design with new colours, illustrations and an interface suited to the new audience.
- Simplified nomination forms removing school-specific fields, terminology and declarations.
- Election management dashboard allowing organisers to manage nominations, candidates and voting.
- Automated SMS and email communications through a dedicated ClickSend account, with updated messaging templates.
- Results management using the existing functionality to declare and publish election outcomes.
- Updated administration tools with terminology suited to clubs and organisations.
- Independent platform setup with its own domain, codebase and messaging account, allowing both products to evolve separately.
Outcome
Proven election platform adapted for a new market
Streamlined nomination and communications for clubs
Independent technology supporting future product development
