Testimonial

We worked with the Digital Services team to explore our ideas and website requirements in a workshop.  This session helped to clarify our ideas on what we wanted the new site to achieve from a business and customer point of view.  The workflow site map was a useful way to see the functionality, connections between the pages and sites and external communication links with Social Media platforms.  Designers then presented Westpoint with visual examples of proposed site appearances and layouts.  Once these were agreed and signed off, we continued to work closely with the design team through the development phases.  Our customers are now able to locate their nearest practices with geo-location to each site and can easily differentiate between the services on offer.
