2. What is in it for you
Did you know a good number of web designing projects collapse
each year because of unfocussed requirement gathering. This
translates into the loss of time, money and effort for both the web
designing company and the client the company has worked for. In
this presentation, we will talk about the varied aspects of
requirement gathering and how to make it work in web designing

3. What is Requirement Gathering
The first stage of any web designing project, requirement
gathering is the process of understanding client’s requirement in
a detailed manner. It involves researching the project particulars
and arriving at a conclusion that can comprehensively chart out
immediate and long term objectives of a project before it
actually begins

4. Objectives of Requirement Gathering
• To clearly and thoughtfully understand the key goals, mission, and
derivatives of the project
• To have a right picture of target audiences and their likings
• To make the client-company relationship trusted
• To reduce the chances of delivering unfocussed business solutions
• To channelize the whole process of web designing
• To eliminate project rework possibilities

5. Process: How it is done
The process of requirement gathering runs through a cycle
of inter-related stages the successful completion of one
ensures the next stage can begin. Things can be summed
up into three stages.
ASK UNDERSTAND
ANALYZE

6. A Little Detailed Look
• Ask: What is the business all about, who are the target
audiences, what are the key business missions, what are the
preferences of the owner
• Analyze: The scope of the project, its
opportunities, complexities, challenges and targeted benefits
• Understand: The technology, tools, best practices, guidelines the
project would require

7. Who Carry out the Process
When all requirements are clearly understood, the project
actually begins. The requirements are usually earned by
business executives of the web designing company who would
later pass on the desired information to the designer or group of
designers who would be deployed to work on the project.
However, in projects of complex diversities, the executive can
take the help of designer/s to understand the client’s standing
better.

8. Conclusion
• The better the requirement gathering process, the improved
would be the chances of delivering business focused web
designing solution
• The web designing company should always have a clear, concise
and thoughtful strategy to easily carry out the process while a
client should always be cooperative and helping in explaining
the requirements
