Web Services
The AIT team provides a wide range of Web-centric services. If you are contemplating an upgrade to your present Web site or making the jump from traditional marketing to a Web-complemented marketing program, give us a call. We specialize in solving challenging problems associated with Internet, Extranet, and Intranet sites. Below is a snapshot of some of our capabilities, and you can view some examples of our web work here.
Planning Services
We help our clients answer such questions as:
- What are my competitors doing, and what must I do to compete effectively?
- What is the minimum we must invest to achieve our goals?
- What parts of our existing infrastructure can we use? What parts must we change?
- What Internet service provider or commerce service provider should we select?
- Who are the design specialists best able to deliver what we need to create the “look” we need for our site? What will this work cost?
- How do we get the programming done on time and at a price we can afford?
- Who can oversee and manage these processes for us until our own managers get a handle on this new medium?
- What steps must be taken to make certain we can use art work for our printed marketing and catalog materials on the site?
- How do we integrate orders and commerce from the Internet with out existing legacy accounting and fulfillment systems? How much does each option cost? Who does the work? Who verifies that the new system meets the accounting standards our accounting firm mandates?
We know that these and other questions are difficult one to ask and to answer to the satisfaction of our clients. Not asking and answering them virtually guarantees that the Web project will be a financial “challenge.” AIT helps our clients avoid unpleasant surprises and making uninformed decisions about Internet technology, integration, and revenues / costs.
