2. Demonstration of Work
 In this slide show you will see samples of the following:

S dh b l M f E l d G l Docs
 Lessons Learned document

3. This slide provides a sample of a website that was a flash website with all
Schedules development outsourced - UX and design work were kept internal. This
p j g
project got off track many times due to the client not being able to nail
y g
down what they wanted. After a final meeting we were able to get the
client to refocus and hit all committed delivery dates.

7. Microsoft Project Schedule
This slide is an example of the use of Microsoft Project. I have one resource who works on
multiple clients at any given time. In order to keep things clear and straight, we track his time and
tasks in Project.

9. Wire Frames
This is a wire frame done for a
client to document all
requirements for the requested
work. Documentation
includes notes to designers,
notes to d l
developers, andd
overall capture of scope. No
design work or development
will begin until client p
g provides
approval either through email
or signed and fax.

11. Wire Frames
Sometimes in wire frames I
would document elements of
the backend so the developer
would make no assumptions
and the client could make sure
no b i
business requirements were
i
missing. We often determined
that business requirements had
not been well thought out by
g y
the time development started.

12. Depending on the project, Site Maps will be done before the Wire Frames
Site Maps or in conjunction with the Wire Frames. This document is important to
really capture the bird s eye view of the web site.
bird’s site

13. This site map was color coded to help the client identify which pages
Site Maps needed content, needed photography or needed to be revised.

14. Technical Specifications
During a project I had to
take over finishing the
technical specifications
for a large web site
project. A resource
assigned did not finish
the work and was no
longer available. I went
l l bl
through and used tracked
changes so the
development team would
p
see what had been added
or changed. I did not
want them to have to re-
read anything that h d
d thi th t had
not changed since work
had already started.
These next few slides
show samples of the
work I did.

18. Budgets & Estimates
We primarily use Creative Manager Pro to
track our projects. In this system, we
create an estimate and enter in the time for
internal labor and any PO s for contract
PO’s
work or sales commissions. This way we
know exactly the budget we have to work
with internally. The smaller screen shot
below is a snap shot done by CMP; it gives
you an idea of remaining internal hours.

19. Budgets & Estimates
Before creating a SOW
for the client, an internal
estimate is created using
an Excel spreadsheet.
Formulas are set up and
items adjusted as needed
to d
determine the cost of
h f
the project. This is a
sample of an internal
estimate created for a
project.

20. Budgets & Estimates
Here is a sample of a
SOW (Statement of
Work) created for a
)
client. It documents
the cost and work to be
completed by the team
in great detail It also

identifies when the
client is responsible for
elements of the
project.

21. Retainer Spreadsheets
Several clients pre-pay for retainer hours that they can use monthly or annually. Work process is as
follows: work request comes in from the client; estimate is gotten from the team; hours are approved by
client to put on retainer; work is done. Work requests are completed within 24 to 48 hours. However,
if th work request i more th 3 h
the k t is than hours, we strive t complete th work within 1 week. R t i
t i to l t the k ithi k Retainer
spreadsheets are managed in either Microsoft Excel or in a Google Docs spreadsheet.

23. Lessons Learned
At the end of the DCPA web
site redesign and development
project, a debrief was
conducted both internally and
externally with the client.
Then a combination of the two
debriefs was compiled into
one document. This brief snap
shot was a very h l f l
h helpful
piece of the project because it
summarized both the client’s
and the internal team’s
thoughts.
