During my last job, I was tasked with working closely with several marketing people for many different projects. Our web resources resides firmly in IS, but were available to Marketing whenever they needed them. Our approach was to make the marketing people part of the development process, insofar as coming up with graphics and look and feel issues. Other than that we had free reign to work on the projects. As far as timeframes go, we had production deadlines that were out of both of our hands, so we just worked together to get them done.

In my case, the web programmers are in MIS and the requirements for the design of the Intranet/Internet sites come form Marketing. MIS also has committments to non-marketing web applications. In my case the way we work is totally different than them. We tend to use a more structured approach. We need to constantly remind them that we need a solid requirement document before we can do real work on redesigning a website. There is also lack of understanding of the time required to do things properly. Also, in general, where to web resources live? Marketing or MIS? Thanks for your comments.
