Brief us early
- Clientside identifies implementation problems at the the design stage which may be harder to deal with later in the project — It's too late to think about a web standards and accessibility once graphic designs have been approved.
- The challenge that enterprises face in ensuring that their web sites and applications meet web standards objectives is that all too often web designers and programmers are relying on out-dated techniques which cannot be easily transferred to a HTML5, XHTML and CSS environments.
- Our process will not delay your project. Compliance and accessibility will be built in from the start, not the cause of problems to stop and fix as they arise.
Practical
- Clientside does not push an agenda or a particular technology.
- We have a very practical attitude to the work.
- We believe that web standards work — they are not perfect — but we know how to make them work for the client in a real world situation.
- Design must be informed by the limitations of the technology, we can advise or implement in a way that can achieve the design intent and remain faithful to web standards design principles.
- We are not beholding to any vendor and give independent advice.
Consistent
- Clientside can ensure that UI specifications, brand guidelines and visual styleguides are being applied consistently at all levels.
- Web standards compliance and accessibility issues can be managed hand-in-hand with design and integrated into well-informed implementation.
- We can liaise with system architects, content management system providers, information architects, user experience designers, project sponsors as well as graphic designers at critical stages of the project.
