- Define Your Vision
- Design and Develop
- Deploy Web Site
| Objective: Understand clearly the needs of the client. Conduct a meeting or meetings with key individuals to determine your needs, goals, and other relevant factors to better prepare for the web site production. |
Discovery:
Discover together opportunities and potential of web enabling a business process even beyond the stated requirements. This may involve the following:
Business process evaluation
A study of your present process or proposed business model.
Specifications Analysis
Create a project plan and an estimate
Gain approval of the client
Requirements Analysis
Define audience/end-user expectations
Interview end-users and client staff

Define:
Define the objective by capturing the key Requirements for the client's web site. Obtain any additional design documents that would help us get a clear understanding of the Vision and Scope of the project. Develop the architecture of your web site - what information should be included and how it should be organized. We now will establish a look and feel for the site by creating prototypes with the look and feel of the site.
Before we begin the web site programming process, design elements will be submitted for your review and approval. This step greatly reduces, and can nearly eliminate, costly revisions which would otherwise be made after the web site programming and launch have been completed.
Next Step > |
Objective: We are sensitive to the fact that you require high visibility of the WIP (work in progress). For this reason, we incorporate high visibility and client involvement during the development cycle. At each stage along the development you are given unparalleled control over the progress of the site.
|
Here are the broad milestones in this process:
Obtain Content:
Create, obtain and organize the content from the various sources. Organize content categories to fit the needs of your users. Create conceptual design and layout.
Prototype:
The first and crucial phase. The prototype shows you the shape of things to come. This is much more than just a visual representation. This is the mould into which we start to breathe the breath of life into your site! Feedback from the client is taken and required modifications are incorporated.
|
|
The Proof of Concept:
The prototype evolves to its more complex level of existence. Many parts of the prototype spring to life. We have this intermediate delivery before the final delivery to establish the proof of concept. Obtain audience/end-user feedback, perform initial user tests, interview end-users and client staff, obtain new / modified requirements.
Start the coding process:
This is where all the hard work of gathering requirements and holding team meetings will pay off. At this point there should be little, if any decisions left to be made. We will start the creation of the web site by using everything we have learned and discussed.

| Objective: Prior to launching your web site for public viewing, we will upload, in stages, the completed work in progress to a server with limited access for review. You are then able to review the web design live, online while work is being performed – not otherwise available to the public.
|
Testing and Process Monitoring:
Technical Testing will encompass performance, accuracy, and navigation issues; any problems found during this period will be solved.
Test and debug HTML under various browsers, Test and debug code and software under various conditions, Test hyperlink structure, Make changes based on new requirements.
|
|
Final Delivery:
The final product is delivered after testing. There are no surprises, and no tense expectations on the date of delivery. For, you have seen it evolve!
Produce and deploy the final deliverable, Upload final files to your server.
