PROJECT OVERVIEW AND OBJECTIVES
DATE SUBMITTED
This project involves the design and development of a new website for use by ABC
Company. The client's current site is badly in need of a design refresh, yet the CRM
must maintain ease of use as several users will need to access the site and regularly
upload content (preferably using WordPress). Another problem commonly
experienced is poor display by the website across different browsers, especially
mobiles and tablets.

NOTES
NAME
Final version of site
Following your brief being sent to the designer, we will deliver two
draft website design concepts within 1 week. One must be chosen
for further development. We will allow for one round of editing
before digital signoff is required to move forward to building the
site.
Once we have been provided with the content for the site, this will
be loaded in and testing can begin. Digital sign off will be required
before deploying to the Staging Site.
Once final testing and edits are complete, the site will be deployed
to ABC Company’s domain. We will then require final sign off and
the following components will be delivered:
1.
Website Account and Login Details - Account and Login
details will be set up for 1 Admin level who can then create
further accounts at User level. An explanation and 30 mins
training on this will be given.
2.
Site Backup - A hard backup copy of the files associated
with the site will be delivered on completion to the client
on a USB stick, as well as backed up to [XYZ ] location.
3.

to make updates to the site along with a link to online
resources will be emailed on completion of the site.
