The world’s leading cancer research charity partnered with Proventeq to migrate rich media and metadata from a custom legacy CMS into Oracle UCM, automating taxonomy application, preserving redirects, and generating audit-ready migration and exception reports to enhance content discoverability.

Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading independent organization dedicated to cancer research. With a scientific spend in the hundreds of millions, it supports research into all aspects of cancer through the work of more than 4,500 scientists, doctors, and nurses. It is ranked among the top three biomedical research organizations in the world.
It was important that end-users should be able to search and retrieve relevant information more efficiently by improving the search classification model. When undertaking this, we would need to migrate all of the existing digital assets such as images and other media files.
All existing metadata needed to be extracted from the source content often transformed using complex rules and then re-associated to the new Oracle UCM (Stellent) web pages. Finally, CRUK wanted us to generate reports detailing the migration status for each item along with error reports detailing all the exceptions – which would be dealt with using a mop-up process.

The migration to Oracle delivered significant benefits to Cancer Research UK:
- File identification: Our expert team discovered multiple different file types that were previously unknown and were able to migrate them all successfully. This discovery process shortened the length of downtime and therefore minimised impact.
- Additional assistance: As part of Proventeq’s dedication to the project, we added extra resources to help CRUK resolve the final few remaining requests, even after the project had officially finished.
- Project goals exceeded: Our expert team ensured the project goals were not only met but exceeded, giving advise on best practice throughout the migration project to ensure all needs were met.
Proventeq took a great deal of trouble to find out about our business area and understand the implications that these changes would have on us.” ”
