GroupSolutions can now offer our partners a complete multimedia development solution. The service ranges from planning and designing, through the creation of a simple image animation to fully coded flash website and ordering systems allowing you to outsource and provide cutting edge flash development to your clients with confidence.
Planning
Careful planning of a multimedia scheme is crucial if it is going to convey the message both succinctly and cost effectively. To ensure your client receives a coherent, consistent product the project must be meticulously planned before any development work is undertaken. Failure to do this can lead to a finished solution that can be hard to navigate, incompatible between different systems, slow and unreliable to use and may take longer to build and cost more than originally anticipated.
GroupSolutions specialise in working closely with our partners to ensure all ideas are fully explored and a logical solution is agreed prior to project commencement. In our experience the process of exhaustive planning ensures that the solution that is delivered meets and often exceeds the expectations of your clients and is on time and within budget.
Design
As well as projecting the right company image it is very important that the design of a multimedia piece should enhance a user's experience. For example, a text-intensive piece should focus on obtaining the correct screen layout and colours for maximum legibility rather than concentrating on elaborate designs.
GroupSolutions always work closely with our partners and offer advice on getting the balance right between the 'wow' factor that is often expected of multimedia pieces and the need for other important aspects to be taken into consideration.
Development
To ensure a project is a success the choice of technology used to create the piece is very important. Incorrect choice of development technology could lead to an inefficient or unreliable piece that requires greater system specifications than first anticipated to work effectively. Incorrect choice of technology could also lead to a project to overrunning both timescale and budget.
We always aim to use the technologies that are most suited to the requirements of the project. We realise that biased or incorrectly chosen technology could ruin even the most perfectly planned and designed project. GroupSolutions always uses tried and tested technologies that are commonly used by all development companies. This allows our partners to maintain projects easily and gives them the freedom to select their own providers of choice in the future.
