Define
Once we've proven to you that we can meet your needs, we'll begin
a detailed analysis of your projects requirements. We'll start by
helping you develop your Internet strategy and define the goals
by which we can judge the project successful. With the aims and
targets clear, we will then develop the project plan.
Design & Development
Based on the design documentation and technical specifications
generated in the previous stage, we'll now shift into production
mode. Our graphic design team will refine and develop the aesthetic
concepts agreed during the planning stage. Through a series of design
prototypes, they'll work with you towards the final look and feel
of your site. At the same time, our programmers will be designing
and coding the backend programs and databases to realise the functional
requirements. Your project co-ordinator will also work with you
to gather and prepare all required written content.
Integration & Testing
This is where all the preparatory work comes together. The templates,
programs and content from the previous stage will be integrated
into the final product. Of course, we'll be doing plenty of testing,
and will encourage you to be involved in this too - after all, it
is extremely important that you're happy with our work. Based on
your feedback we'll make any necessary alterations and tweaks.
Deploy
Once everything is ready, we'll publish the site on the Internet
(or your intranet), and once again verify that everything is working
as it should be. Depending on the nature of the project and our
initial agreement, we'll also provide you with appropriate training.
It's at this point that promotional work can begin too, to ensure
people see and use your new website.
Now your project is live, it's important to work to make it as
effective in achieving its goals as possible. This means promoting
the site through a variety of channels, monitoring and reacting
to feedback, and developing new functionality and content areas
in response to your clients' demands. We'll be here to advise you
throughout the lifetime of your site - we hope to partner you through
ever greater successes.
