- Short deadline of 6 weeks
OUTCOME
After previously working with other departments within the Government of South Australia, we were referred to the Department of Human Services (DHS) to create a new website for their Strong Futures Youth Action Plan for 2020 – 2022. We met with the team on site and discussed the scope, expectations, and requirements for the project.
Upon acceptance of our proposal, we were delighted to be engaged by DHS to build their new WordPress website and provide our graphic design services to create a supplementary print ready PDF document to showcase the Plan.
Given the strict timeline of 6 weeks, we understood time was of the essence and immediately began work. After thorough research, planning and consideration of the brief, we prepared detailed documentation to outline the website and content structure along with a full design concept. Due to thorough preparation, this work was promptly signed off on by the client, all within 2 weeks.
This allowed us to use the remainder of the time for the website build itself and the supplementary design work.
Upon completion of the project, we worked alongside DHS’s internal IT department and external host to transfer the website and have the site launched.
The outcome was a modern and easy to use website that met all brief requirements along with a high-quality supporting print ready PDF document. The team at the DHS were very happy with the outcome and we continue to manage their website maintenance on a quarterly basis.
We look forward to working with the Department of Human Services again in the future.
