Methodology
DeVine's eBusiness strategy was born out of a very disciplined and formal methodology process. We know from experience that a disciplined, finite process actually creates the freedom to do great design work. Extended deadlines and budget overages can never make up for the flawed process that causes them in the first place. That is why DeVine always starts with a strategy vision phase. This allows you the client to start with a clear outline of the project. Our coordination and design leadership will keep the project on schedule, in budget, and clearly focused on its design objectives at every step.
Strategy
During the Strategy Phase, we work with you to jointly identify and assign priorities to the areas where Internet technologies can deliver the highest return on the client's investment. Prior to defining system requirements, it is imperative that the DeVine team understands the business objectives of the executive sponsors of the project. In an initial workshop, the project team will work with the executive sponsors to identify and prioritize the business objectives for the project. Metrics for measuring project success will be identified, and the overall scope of the project will be determined. By setting initial expectations with regard to project schedule, budget, and feature-set, we can help monitor scope creep throughout the Requirements Definition process and advise you as appropriate.
Requirements
DeVine has developed a thorough, well-defined methodology for conducting Requirements Definition engagements. This methodology makes extensive use of collaborative, facilitated workshops in which the client and the development project team work jointly to define the requirements for the project. This process results in a complete understanding of the project objectives by the project team. Because the entire client and project teams are in the same room as decisions are being made, the time normally consumed by chasing down authorization and building consensus is eliminated. Most importantly, the entire group reaches a state of shared vision, resulting in the highest quality finished product.
Design
During the design phase, we will build the working site based on the blueprint and composites produced during this time period. We produce, code and integrate all necessary pages, programs and components.
This generally consists of high-level pages on the site and templates for lower level pages. We typically construct a site in stages, according to the schedule set forth in the design document, allowing the client to provide ongoing feedback on each stage built.

During this phase, the project manager is in frequent regular contact with the client, providing status and soliciting feedback. Depending on the complexity of the project, regularly scheduled meetings or teleconferences can be used to formalize discussion of the project's progress.
Implementation
In the Implementation phase, DeVine turns the beta site into a tested and fully operational site.
