Goals

Having been at the coal face of using Content Management Systems for several years, we want content creation to be easy for administrators without limiting functionality or restricting creativity. Our goal as a company is provide great web solutions on Open Source platforms.

We use a team based approach with professional associates

This provides a flexible and scaleable approach to all our projects and means :

• We can select the best available people for a project
• The team(s) keep up to date with technology and are always at the cutting edge
• Our teams reputation and quality of work is their signature
• Our teams are highly motivated, experienced and productive
• Working on a project basis retains focus for everyone

Our team based approach makes us agile and quick to develop and respond to changing circumstances. We like to be flexible with our methodology so give great importance to listening to clients. We work on a structured basis, each project fitting into a fairly typical formula which define the process and route taken.

A key factor iin any web project is to work out what the measurable goals are so that we have a succeess criteria for you the client and us - the hired help. Once we start a project the unfolding process of development follows a standard process like below:

• Agree terms / contracts / MOUs
• KIck off meeting - ROIs & Goals
• Site Architecture / Content mapping
• Design Process
• Design Implementation
• Training
• Launch

We manage most of our projects online with BasecampHQ. This allows us and our clients to share and communicate with a stored history of conversations and dialogue which we and clients have found extremely useful. It lets us - and you - manage milestones, to-do lists, files, messages and comments - all the interaction needed to keep everyone up to date, focused and communicating through a project. And of course we like face-to-face too!

Joomla! runs on any platform including Windows, most flavours of Linux, several Unix versions, and the Apple OS/X platform. Joomla! depends on PHP and the MySQL database to deliver dynamic content.

The minimum requirements are:

• Apache 1.x, 2.x and higher
