For Those Doing Their Duty!
U.S. Military & Veterans | Home Business
Our ability to deliver an optimal solution that meets and exceeds your needs comes from a structured, rigorous process. Before we (TBC Web Solutions) can begin to understand what you want to accomplish it is important for you to have a clear understanding of what you want to accomplish. If you ask us to just build you a web site I can almost guarantee that you will not be happy with it.
For us to meet your goals we must first know your goals. Your role in our team is to clarify your goals and then convey those goals so that we can deliver the right solution that meets your needs and wants.
We strive to make you happy. That requires working together to accomplish your goal.
CLIENT SURVEY (FILL OUT THE SURVEY FORM)
The survey gathers information about the type, look and feel, and requirements you will need in your project. It gives us an idea on what we need to do to give you exactly what you want.
PROJECT BRIEF
After analyzing the survey, we will write a project brief and submit it back to you. This ‘back-brief’ will ensure that we are on the same page and we have a clear understanding of what you want this project to accomplish.
This process may take a few revisions. Better now than re-designing the entire project!
Note: Along with the final revision will be the price quote to complete the project.
PROJECT PLAN AND TIMELINE
Once the project brief is agreed upon we will develop the project plan and time line. This plan and time line will be inserted into our Web Design Contract. This contract will also include the scope of work to be done and any additional services needed or required. The contract will also detail the cost and payment arrangements. When the contract is signed and returned with the initial deposit we will start your project.
CONTENT OUTLINE
This is another step that requires your active participation.
Gather all of your existing content for the site (images, text, etc). Brainstorm content that needs to be created for the site. Now review the content gathered and eliminate that which does not match the goals or audience needs as stated in the project brief.
SITE DIAGRAM
Our next step is to develop a site diagram. This diagram is a visual representation of your content outline and site structure. This will assist us while developing the layout and navigation for your new web site.
WIRE FRAMES
A wire frame is simply the non-graphical layout of a web page. It includes all of the containers for the major elements of the page such as navigation, images, content, functional elements (like search) and footer. It is a simple drawing of the elements of information and functionality for each page in your site. A wire frame will be created for your home page, each unique second level page and any other significantly different page on the site.
Note: Your input at this stage is very important and will eliminate near future design changes.
After you have approved of the site structure and gathered your content it is time to start drafting the actual design of the web site. This phase also requires your active participation. You will receive up to 3 drafts — depending upon the size and complexity of your site. Each Draft will incorporate any changes you deem necessary and consist of additional pages.
The final design will be sent to you for your final approval. This will include the home page and all unique sub-pages. With your final approval of the design we will move into the development stage.
During this stage we will actually build the site and implement the required technical and functional elements outlined in the Project Brief. This includes validating the code, checking Browser Compatibility and testing.
With your approval we are ready to Launch!
With your final approval the site will be launched to your Web Hosting Space.
With the site now live it is time to implement the maintenance plan that was outlined during the Define the Site stage. With all this hard work and money invested into the project it would seem a little silly to not keep the site:
