User Requirements
Knowing what you want out of your website is one thing. Getting your team to develop what you want is altogether a different matter. To ensure what you want is what you get, we translate your business objectives into functional, design and content requirements.
For who?
Clients who already have a good idea on what they want to do, but do not know how to go about building the site. It’s also particularly useful for clients who are having a hard time getting developers to “understand” what they want.
What does drafting user requirements involve?
Our consultants will help you to:
- Define your business and website objectives
- Match your objectives to users’ goals
- Define the site functionalities (tools and features on your website)
- Prioritise the development of site functionalities
- Maximise the potential of your existing technology
Why hire us for user requirements?
We’ve spent the last 10 years transforming business objectives into requirements for developers. We’re particularly good at it because we don’t have an in-house development team! We rely on outsource developers or our clients’ developers who need to know exactly what to build. It is our job to spell it out for them.
Over the past 10 years, we’ve had the opportunity to work with proprietary content management solutions such as Vignette, Interwoven and Microsoft CMS. We have also dabbled deeply in open source solutions such as Drupal, Joomla, Mambo and WordPress. Because we understand their strengths and limitations, you never have to worry about ending up with requirements that cost too much or are impossible to implement.
