You can build a house without a blueprint, but how do you know it will turn out as you planned? So many pieces to put together, so many details left up for interpretation – what if a “clarification” about the basement mid-construction means you have to start over? What if you forgot to design one of the rooms because you couldn’t see the big picture? What if there are building codes you hadn’t thought about? By the time you’re done, it might not be the house you wanted after all – or it might cost more than you had budgeted.
"Blueprinting is about looking at the big picture through the eyes of an experienced architect, and then drilling down to the smallest details."
Building highly customized websites is not much different. You have a vision for how you want your site to look and work, and you deserve to see it built just right. But if you dive in without a detailed development plan, the whole process can fall apart – or cost a lot more than originally estimated.
No matter how much detail you’ve worked out, Summersault’s blueprinting process can get you the rest of the way to a specification that describes every aspect of the site to be built. You can show the blueprint to your colleagues and future users, use it to market the site…you could even give it to other website development firms and ask them to quote the construction costs.
Whatever you do with it, experience shows that the blueprint will save you time and money, speed the development process, and give everyone involved peace of mind. Blueprinting is about looking at the big picture through the eyes of an experienced architect, and drilling down to the smallest details.
At the end of the blueprinting process, we’ll be ready to give you a detailed proposal for the development phase, including estimated costs, projected timeline, and specific milestones and expectations along the way. When we’ve created a proposal that you accept, it’s time to begin development!
