Phase 1 - Initial Consultation and Proposal

In this phase information is collected and analysed. Eirspace, with your help will identify the key objectives and consider them in the context of practical parameters such as budget and time frame. The scope and depth of a project begins to materialise during this phase and a cost proposal is developed.

Phase 2 -  Site Planning and Architecture

The  information and materials collected from the client are organised by level of  priority. This is where the structure begins to take shape and a prototype is  created. Most visitors to a Website are looking for information. We need to make  that information easily accessible and insure that if they move in the wrong  direction they can get back on track without getting lost.

 
Define the navigation & flow of the information
 
Identify resources needed for the project
 
Decide on the sites overall concept and layout

Phase 3 - Design and Implementation

In this  phase, the project takes on form in colours, shapes, and other visual or textual  elements that bridge the parts of the project developed in the definition and architecture phases. It is in the design phase that a project acquires a look  and feel. This is not the only phase in which design plays a part, but it is where the creativity that gives the project its personality is employed, and  where the visual metaphors that support and enhance the architecture of the information are devised. Once the navigation and design prototype is approved  the site moves into production. During the implementation phase the site comes  to life and Applications are added. All of the sections are constructed and the content is added as well as any necessary programming or enhancements.

 
Decide upon the overall look and feel of the site
 
Format provided materials for use on the web
 
Implement colour palettes, photographs, illustrations, fonts and any other necessary materials
 
Implement the design as specified

Phase 4 - Testing and  Analysis

During production, the site is is  continually tested. During this phase Eirspace will go through the  site with a fine tooth comb making sure all interactive components are working  properly. Any inconsistencies and errors will be corrected at this time. Client participation is highly recommended during this phase.

 

Phase 5 - Launch and Follow-up

After rigorous testing, the site will be made live to the public. After the site has been launched Eirspace will meet  with the client's team to review the initial reactions to the site, review the first months hit reports and plan any additional development, maintenance or training.
