Project Management

Our team includes web project managers experienced in developing large and complex systems. All of our projects are delivered with the assistance of a comprehensive and functional HTML wireframe prototype of your final application. The wireframe enables you, your team and your investors to visualise and interact with your application from within your web browser before any development work starts.

Rapid HTML Wireframe Prototyping

Due to the iterative and collaborative nature of this process (working closely with you) we find it by far the best way to tease the functionality requirements from any business or entrepreneur. An application will often change a great deal during this initial phase of design as our client sees the application come to life within the HTML wireframe prototype.

The flexible nature of the prototype (it does not contain complex programming or a database) allows us to rapidly test different approaches to complex elements of functionality and workflows. We can see what works best onscreen, in a web browser with your users or select group of early client testers.

All of our prototypes are delivered with and underpinned by a comprehensive, written technical specification.

A Varied Development Skill-Set

Our technical personnel are drawn from various different marketplaces and industry sectors helping us to deliver a variety of experience and expertise to any project. We like to keep ourselves ahead of the curve and regularly attend industry events and conferences.

We use a combination of Open Source technologies because we wholeheartedly believe that this delivers the most flexibility, value and broad spectrum of the latest technologies to any project. All development work is undertaken using Zend Framework and a variety of databases including MySQL and Mongo DB. We have also been using Elastic Search for a number of years and use it to power sites that require fast and powerful search functions across large database. We would be delighted to both demonstrate and discuss the best blend of technology for your project.

We also specialise in the deployment of bespoke WordPress content management solutions. We have worked with WordPress now for over 10 years and can fully integrate the benefit of this fantastic CMS and it’s core plugins such as Woo Commerce into other bespoke solutions. This flexible approach allow us to rapidly deploy “phase 1 solutions” without the need develop everything form scratch.
