How to Plan a Project

Project planning is critical because it helps you focus your objectives and plan usability activities.

Develop a Project Plan

Creating a plan is a way to understand and get agreement on what you are going to do, in what timeframe, with what resources, and at what cost.

Project Team

Selecting the proper project team is essential to ensuring a smooth and successful project.

Kick-Off Meeting

Hosting a kick-off meeting helps you understand how your internal team views the current website and the project to develop a new site.

Statement of Work (SOW)

A SOW describes the work you need performed and usually includes a timeline and level of effort so that a vendor or contractor can respond to the Request for Quotes (RFQ) with a proposal and cost estimate.

Hiring Usability Specialists

When hiring a usability specialist, it is important to review the individual specialist's skills and background to ensure that you select a qualified expert.
