Website Redesign

PROJECT SCOPE Project Summary Redesign exciting website for improved functionality, navigation, aesthetics and overall user experience Project Scope A survey of our members included feedback on our website. While some feedback indicated that the site was pretty good, others felt it needed a better layout, better organization and a facelift. Last overhaul was done in 2014 and we feel the look, feel and layout needs to be updated and user friendly. Our website is built on Drupal and want to continue with current website hosting and maintenance which is user friendly and budget friendly to charities and non-profits. As our organization is volunteer run, we don't have the capacity for a steep learning curve that a new system platform requires. Project Objectives Conduct a needs analysis to determine scope and requirements - may include user feedback, previous surveys conducted. Create design specs and wireframe. Conduct user testing on working prototype, use feedback to optimize design. Applying design thinking theory and practices to create a prototype.
