Regardless of organizational size, scope or focus, the proper use of technology will become increasingly more important to the successful execution of almost every type of project museums undertake. More specifically, the capacity of the Internet to exhibit your museum collection to new audiences and in new ways has proven the Internet essential to the future of museum exhibits. Indeed, since online exhibitions are not bound by physical requirements such as gallery size, the need for insurance and security personnel, etc., virtual exhibitions remain a cost effective means of educational communication and collection display.

Orinda Group not only has the technical capacity to design and produce customized online exhibitions, but also the ability to assist your staff in the structure and development of exhibition content. We will work with you to develop new exhibitions or to critique and revamp existing exhibitions.

But technology's place within the museum is by no means limited to the production of online exhibitions. Increasing numbers of cultural organizations are learning the value of e-commerce solutions both to increase gift shop revenue dramatically and to stimulate membership purchases. Unlike many companies that offer similar services, Orinda Group always considers these activities with respect to your museum's vision, mission and goals. We look at the larger picture in order to determine how to use the Internet to further your goals strategically.

However, the role of technology naturally extends beyond the Internet. Orinda Group principals have years of experience creating, shaping and using collection management database systems. From basic relational databases to extensive pre-packaged software suites, Orinda Group has the ability to match your collection, staff and goals with the most appropriate solution. Whether your collections department is starting fresh, attempting to increase efficiency or wishing to implement digitization and Internet publication initiatives, we offer a full range of collection management database construction, manipulation and training services.
