The Tools
Our skills cover a broad range of tools and technologies. The choice of these is made on best fit, per project basis.
All of Gurg Consultings designers write HTML, CSS and JavaScript. We primarily use the Macromedia set of design tools including Dreamweaver, Ultradev, Fireworks and Flash. Our primary server-side technology is ASP. For a full list of our currently used technologies, please refer to our Core skill sets PDF.
Our Approach
We offer a 3-phase approach to web projects:
- Clarification - listening to customer needs and requirements and defining the solution
- Implementation - database, application and graphical design
- Maintenance and support - hosting the site, monitoring performance and making modifications where necessary
At the clarification stage a detailed project specification will be produced covering all aspects of design and implementation. A project plan will also be produced which will indicate timescales, dependencies and key milestones.
Once the specification and project plan have been signed off, our design and programming teams will implement the solution.
Our team works to tried and tested development methodologies and are constantly liaising with our project managers. When a solution goes live, we will monitor its use, check its performance and actively seek feedback from all user groups within your organisation.
