Our development process involves these key elements:
Planning:
We believe the key to a successful development project lies in the planning phase. It is during this phase of the project that we gain the valuable insight to ensure our developers can translate your demands into a website that generates your PROFIT, has a high adoption rate, and streamlines your business processes.
By asking the tough questions and listening carefully to your responses, we determine the optimum design, appropriate toolset and best path to execution, and then translate those findings into a concise technical document that serves as our blueprint for development.
Developing:
It is only once we have completed gathering and documentation of your requirements that our team of developers begin to create rock-solid applications tailored to your individual needs.
With our usability experts on hand at every stage of a project, we make sure that all of our application development work isn't simply flawlessl, but grounded in best usability practices. We also ensure that all the parts of your web site work together smoothly and responsively, even with different applications or when other web sites are involved.
Quality Assurance:
Our quality assurance team is involved from the beginning of your project working with our Lead Developer to create a rigorous testing plan designed to make sure that all development work matches your requirements and meets your needs. Our team is extremely skilled in BETA testing to make sure all aspects of the system are tested as new functionality is deployed.
Commitment to Your Success:
Application development is about translating your business processes and operations online so you can streamline your operations more efficently. You want a partner who understands the significance and impact of moving operations online, and who will remain focused to your success throughout the lifecycle of your project. Our team has managed countless projects to success through our commitment to the quality of our work and to your success.
Our Solutions
Content Management Systems:
Keep your web site up-to-date, cut maintenance costs and empower those in your organization to update your site without it becoming a free-for-all of inconsistency.
We have listened to the evolving needs of our clients and has developed proven solutions to allow them to manage their content in-house with ease using web-based tools.
Common systems include:
Searchable Databases and Directories:
A customer who can quickly locate products or information at your site is more likely to stay, buy, return or spread the word. A searchable database makes it easy for customers to find what they're looking for by keywords or specific categories. User-friendly control panels allow a site administrator to manage your products or information independently. Whether your data needs involve 100, 100,000 or 1 million records, Martin Design Company stands out in its ability to deliver your data to your site visitors in record time.
E-commerce:
Martin Design Company provides solutions for every aspect of e-commerce beginning with the establishment of an Internet merchant account, providing referrals of fulfillment centers and continuing through the development or integration of business intelligence tools. For the sale of things from an association's publications to a retailer's product line, we offer database-driven e-commerce applications that allow clients to add and edit items, offer member discounts, change shipping rates and more. When implemented with our real-time customer service chat application, "Talk to a Live Representative," our clients are providing easy-to-use, secure online purchasing to their customers and members.
Strengthened Relationships Through Community Building:
Increasingly, web site owners are moving beyond traditional publishing and transaction models to build strengthened relationships with key customer and user "communities." These communities can include association members, purchasers, business partners, vendors, students, clients, and other stakeholders. Whether the right solution includes setting up a corporate blog or wiki, creating a public Facebook group, or building your own community infrastructure using a "white label" social network, Martin Design Company will help you select and implement the strategy that makes the most sense for your organization and your budget.
