Whether planning a new website from the ground up or developing an existing system, NSS use a specification and development process which allows us to accurately define your online strategy. We blend a sound knowledge of business with creativity and years of combined Internet experience to guide you through the often ambiguous process of developing an Internet strategy. |
| |
| We don't just want to build you a website, we want |
| to help you develop a strategy which will enable you to harness and utilise appropriate technologies that assist you in achieving your business objectives both today and in the future. |
| |
| Our process involves working closely with you from initial consultation to site launch ensuring that you are kept informed and involved at every stage of the project. Our team has extensive experience in both the technical aspects of web development and in account management processes. |
| |
 |
Step 1: Consultation |
| |
The first step with any project is to examine your overall business objectives. North Star Solutions strongly believes that your Internet strategy should be firmly rooted in achieving your wider business aims and should always provide an excellent return on investment. We want to understand you, your business, your customers and your potential customers, only then can we use our in-depth understanding of the Internet to provide you with a uniquely tailored solution that is appropriate to your needs.
We have produced a needs analysis questionnaire to help both parties develop a solid base from which to proceed. The questionnaire is designed to help you define the overall goals of your site including specific questions regarding message, content, audience, look and feel and function.

Step 2: Specification |
| |
Following the consultation process, we take our new found knowledge of you and your business and build a detailed specification for the project. We then supply you with a detailed proposal, technical specification, budget and schedule for the development of the project. |
| |
|
|
Step 3: Implementation |
| |
This is the phase of the project when the plans and ideas start to take shape. A dedicated team of designers, technical staff and a project manager are assembled to bring the plans and ideas alive. Regular meetings and discussions take place during the development phase to ensure that you are kept informed of the project's progress. |
| |
|
|
Step 4: Testing |
| |
Quality assurance is a vital part of the development process. During the test phase we use our quality assurance procedures to check the site's usability, functionality and accuracy of content. We then test the site across platforms and browser types to ensure that the site is ready for launch. |
| |
|
|
Step 5: Launch |
| |
The site is launched on time, to budget and to a standard that invariably exceeds client expectations. |
| |
|
|
Step 6: Evaluation |
| |
Following the Launch a project review meeting takes place, we evaluate the working process, communication, any inhibitors and issues and most importantly how well the solution answered the initial criteria. We value your input and you will be invited to give feedback throughout the evaluation phase. |
| |
|
|
Step 7: Future development |
| |
As part of the specification phase we will always bear in mind future developments for your website. Our build techniques ensure that your project will be 'future-proof' and at this stage we will develop a proposal of recommendations for future development of your website. |
