Clearwired Process Map

by KEVIN SILVER :: SEP 8, 2006 :: COMMENTS (0)

Over the last few months I have been working on refining our design and development process. After hours of internal discussion and brainstorming we determined that we wanted to combine the best of agile and user-centered design methodologies. We didn’t want to follow a strict waterfall pattern, flexibility in the choice of tools and extensive iteration with built in validation loops is extremely important to us. The process itself is based on our core belief that the foundation of an exceptional user experience is a strong understanding of our clients’ business and their customers. Our process is “deliverable-driven” allowing the solution to unfold one layer at a time. This provides our clients an opportunity to collaborate as the project proceeds.

As with any design and development process this is going to be our guide and it will be tailored for each engagement. Most importantly it’s an internal map for our projects which helps us communicate to our clients what they can expect working with us. Here’s the process map (version 1.0): ClearwiredProcess.pdf
