At developmentguruji.com, we never keep lagging behind the deadlines; timely completion of any development project is something we insist on. Systematic Project Management technique has been the key to success and we keep our attempts ongoing to improve it constantly. For a better understanding on the current project management procedure that we follow, please use the link Developmentguruji.com.
It has been an exhaustive Research & Development procedure that enabled developmentguruji.com to come up with its own Project Management technique, but keeping in track with the conventional Project Management Techniques that the software industry upholds.
All the projects that we deal at developmentguruji.com have to strictly pass through the following phases of Systematic Project Management:
To finally accomplish the goal you have in your mind, you need to first decide/plan on the ways you might take up to get there. Similarly, decision/planning forms highly crucial in our Systematic Project Management and the success or failure of any project depends largely on this. Here you need to bear a clear idea on what you actually intent to accomplish through your website. Plan and decide on whether you would need any specific functionality or interactivity to be incorporated in your website to increase user participation. This is the phase where you need to arrive upon a design pattern which you think would project your company’s logic. Once your part of the job is done, you can now request your free, no-obligation website design quote from developmentguruji.com.
It is solely based on the information that you provide when requesting the website design quote that we attempt to determine your needs and try to visualize the brand appeal you intent to create in your company. This explains why it is important for you to be as detailed as possible when placing your quote. Lack of clarity regarding any issue will be communicated to you prior to accepting your quote, so as to get your suggestions on the same. It is only after getting the clarification from your end that we will make any further proceedings on the project.
On arriving at an agreement on project regarded details, timeline and price factor, we will send you a website development contract to review, sign and return.
This is where both the parties work in tandem with each other and from where the actual procedure begins. We have ISPG’s Support Team working closely with you to better understand yours/ your client’s requirements in specific. When we have done enough of research, have clearly understood your specifications and have made ourselves doubt-free, then we finally prepare an extensive documentation on client requirements.
CSD or Customer Specification Document is basically an understanding a customer’s or potential client's system requirements and dependencies at a particular point in time, prior to any actual design or development work begins. The CSD document is quite transparent and discusses on those functions and capabilities a software system must provide. Moreover, this document also serves as a blueprint, meant for the completion of the project within a given time frame.
But it is quite important that you understand that the CSD that we prepare is rather concise and speaks of the functional and nonfunctional requirements only; it doesn't offer any suggestions on design pattern or possible solutions specific to technology or business aspects, or any other information other than what the development team understands the customer's system requirements to be.
After considering all related aspects that are specific to the project, our development team prepares a technical documentation that is detailed enough to cover the whole of the project. This will touch all the features that the final project will contain and is in itself the backbone of the project.
Summarizing these core points, they explain the functionalities to be dealt with, with detailed implications on the project strategy, streamlining and scheduling of the works for different specialist teams etc. Thus in this stage we develop:
The preparation of the HLD documentation is primarily intended towards the customer to scrutinize the listed factors, prior to any design development. This will go a long way reducing future redesigning, recoding and retesting. Timely review of HLD document can help deal with any omissions, misunderstandings, and inconsistencies early in the development cycle when they are still do-able.
Once the discrepancies are dealt with and when you are given a thorough explanation on the whole procedure, we will then provide you with a detailed technical document seeking for your approval. It is only after receiving your consent that we move on to the next phase of the project.
Our development phase passes through three different stages - developing the code, designing the home, inner pages and other elements, and finally module wise testing. Starting from this stage onwards you will receive daily updates on work-progress.
Considering closely, each step in this phase deals with:
Designing: Based on the approved HLD and other specifications made by the customer, the team at developmentguruiji.com will work on the designing aspects of the project. Here you are required to provide us with the navigation links you would prefer to include in your website (such as home, about us, services, etc) and should also provide us with the text and/or product information or such other sustaining information. In addition to this, you would also need to supply materials such as company logo, personal photos, etc, if you desire so. When you are done with these, allow us 3-5 business days to get back to you with three possible custom designed home page concepts for your project.
When you have made the final pick out of the three concepts, our team will then start its attempts to make further modifications so as to reach the final desired look. This will be followed by the layout for inner pages, HTML conversion of the design, programming if any etc.
Coding & Testing: This is the phase where the system is developed: the navigation menus, static and dynamic web pages, response forms, contact forms, style sheets are defined and created. Each system component is tested individually, or undergoes module testing. The testing phase covers browser compatibility, code testing, functionality testing, search engine readiness, spell check etc. At various points in the process, users may be presented with individual components of the system, in order to verify that these components perform as expected.
Once done with the coding and testing phase, the entire system is put to test to ensure that individual components are seamlessly integrated and work together as a system. This takes in the integration of the different modules, which finally ends with testing the project, detecting and correcting bugs. Moreover, this phase asks for user participation to a great extent to observe system compatibility. This can ward off the un-called for and minimize future surprises and can gauge user satisfaction.
It is in this phase that the project is installed in your/your client’s server. This is done by setting-up the database, creating folders, uploading the files and setting permissions. Once the website is live, any interactive programming and scripts are tested to verify flawless functioning. Since the design and testing phase often occurs on a different server, it is very important to verify once again that everything is working correctly, once if the website is launched.
At developmentguruji.com we take to go that extra mile. Once the system is live on net, we provide you with adequate online training to help understand the project better and to start using it effortlessly. We will also supply a training manual in Word or PDF format with screen shots. If necessary, we will also answer your queries over telephonic support to enlighten you in all possible aspects of the project.
At developmentguruji.com we also entertain minor adjustments (a maximum of 3hrs labor or less) in an already launched website, provided you communicate the same to us within two weeks time. Such minor changes may include updating text, adding or changing supporting photographs etc. We consider this as a value added service and so incurs no cost on our customers. But in case of major revision requests and other time-consuming modifications, it would probably ask for a one-to-one discussion and will be charged accordingly.
