eCommerce Solutions : Evaluation
Whether planning a real estate web
site
, standard website, Internet-enabled communications, or a
sophisticated transaction-based information delivery system, you
must identify your goals and choose from the many possibilities to
achieve them. Our DemoView© system ensures that your
strategy meets your needs and those of your customers.
We study the
shape of your information and recommend appropriate information
technology architecture. We provide a detailed specification online
so you and your team know what to expect.
For a
project which is more of an R&D activity, we can propose an
iterative strategy which provides broad directions and allows for a
more experimental approach that responds to needs as they are
identified during the course of the project. We have the expertise
to deal with either kind of project.
Development There
are lots of glamorous experimental technologies which can be used in
an internet solution. Sometimes these are appropriate, and we can
provide these where required. On the other hand, there may be little
point in beginning with unnecessary bells and whistles if your aim
is not merely to impress.
We
recommend and use "appropriate technology" to meet your needs, both
in development and to comprise your solution. What will work
today is the underlying principle, not merely tricks to appear
clever. Our understanding of development technologies and user
behaviour enables us to offer constructive insights into how your
strategy will work for your users.
We bring the
disciplines of successful software production and information
technology delivery to implementing your Internet strategy. We
develop in a staged way. We write a careful specification. We follow
a documented development methodology. There are specific points at
which your approval is given to proceed to the next stage. And we
provide a warranty period after publishing the production version of
the site, in which any bugs or departures from the specification are
fixed.
Production and
management Once delivered, good management of your Internet
solution means ensuring that your business can get the most from its
investment. This means ensuring that feedback from users is attended
to, that the site is continually monitored for technical integrity,
that opportunities for further development are addressed, that
orders and requests are promptly fulfilled in an efficient manner,
that amendments to the strategy can be completed effectively.
We are always
researching the latest techniques for attracting visitors to your
site, not just through the web but through all aspects of marketing.
You can conduct your own research by providing feedback mechanisms
on the site too. You may wish to establish mutual links with other
relevant sites, and list your site on the relevant search engines
and directories.
Our business
process expertise helps you develop effective means for your
Internet strategy to be integrated into your ongoing business
activity
