PAGE 13 <br />Implementation <br />Design creation, content development, professional consulting, configuration for usability and accessibility, <br />dedicated training − CivicPlus delivers all of this and more during the development of your new website. <br />Align Consulting <br />Our consultants start with the philosophy that no <br />project can be successful unless all stakeholders <br />have a common definition of success. In this <br />consult, stakeholders discuss and establish goals <br />for implementing an enterprise software solution. <br />Stakeholders leave with an understanding of the <br />scope and resources required for implementation <br />and alignment on the strategic goals of the project. <br />The most successful implementations are those in <br />which all stakeholders—elected officials, department <br />representatives, project team, and citizens (optional)— <br />take time to have the tough conversations up front. <br />Objectives & Deliverables <br />With Align Consulting, your professional consultant will <br />facilitate meaningful conversations with your team to: <br />• Outline the needs for all stakeholders and discuss <br />differing perspectives for the website project <br />• Establish collective goals for the project which <br />address needs from applicable departments, <br />external audiences, and staff <br />• Outline the scope of the project and review the <br />tasks, activities, roles and responsibilities required <br />to implement, launch and sustain an enterprise- <br />wide solution <br />Custom Layout Design <br />You’ll meet with your Art Director to discuss your website <br />vision and build your custom layout from scratch. We will <br />then collaborate with you to create a custom design that <br />represents your community. We will focus on including <br />the functionality to meet your website needs, including <br />an option for up to three advanced design components – <br />layout or design elements that require significant time to <br />style and implement. Working with your Art Director, you <br />will identify the appropriate components to achieve or <br />enhance the usability goals for your site. <br />Mood Board & Layout Proposal <br />Your Project Team will present a custom mood board <br />reflecting the colors and imagery that will set the tone for <br />your design. A mood board is a collection of colors and <br />images used to align the visual direction of the project. <br />To ensure effective usability, your Project Team will <br />also provide a custom, greyscale layout proposal for <br />your review and approval. This layout wireframe is used <br />to establish the order, placement, and layout of home <br />page content as needed to achieve your usability goals. <br />Aligning project goals and design through the layout <br />proposal ensures a timely and efficient implementation <br />of your CivicEngage website. <br />Once approved, the mood board and layout proposal will <br />be used to guide the design concept for your website. <br />“This was hands down the easiest and <br />most intuitive group I have ever worked <br />with for a website redesign. Other <br />website development companies I have <br />worked with do not respond as quickly. <br />My CivicPlus team read my mind <br />whenever I needed something. Plus, our <br />website’s launch was flawless.” <br />— Nicole Smestad, Marketing Director for <br />Grand Forks, North Dakota Library
