Case Study

Mobrand Biometrics, Inc., in conjuction with the Pacific Northwest Power Planning Council, will offer an online Ecosystems Diagnosis and Treatment (EDT) application. EDT Online will offer a practical, science-based approach for developing and implementing watershed plans, providing decision-makers with the technical information needed to develop healthy ecosystems with thriving fish populations.

Yes, the task is as technical and complex as it sounds. Several different activities and a tremendous amount of data will be available to the educated professionals who will use the site, so managing the workflow and user interface was a daunting task. Mobrand wisely contacted Server Side Software for the job. Server Side Software would develop a thoroughly detailed Project Specification Document to outline the workflow and user activities that will be produced for the site. Server Side Software subcontracted us to create the Look and Feel, logo design and user interface design, and to produce the site templates and webpages.

Using the Specs as a guide, we created the site navigation, page layouts and Graphical User Interface for the many forms within the application. We designed the site Look & Feel to appeal to a wide audience and to load quickly on slow connections. The resulting "mockups" were brilliantly coded by Server Side Software to provide the complex functionality.

Feedback from the Northwest Power Planning Council was enthusiastic. Mobrand was so thrilled with the results, they hired us again to update the Home page with a fresh look and add an interactive Flash map, and to redesign their corporate site.
