Website and engagement guide
01 / Agreement
The written agreement comes first
Project work proceeds under written scope, approvals, and delivery terms agreed during the engagement.
This page guides website use and engagement conversations. It does not replace a written project agreement or add commitments to one. Read your project documents for the terms that apply to your work. If a website description and your agreement seem different, ask us to clarify the specific point.
02 / Website
Website materials provide context
Our capabilities, articles and work examples give context for our approach. Each case study reflects a particular project, audience and challenge. Use those examples to explore possibilities; use your written agreement to identify your deliverables.
Viewing material is different from having permission to reuse it. Text, images and other creative work may be protected by copyright. Before reproducing something, ask about the relevant permission or licence and who holds the rights.
03 / Scope
Define the work
Distinguish the goal from the work included: which pages, content, systems or services are involved, and what is outside the engagement. Identify existing materials or decisions the work depends on. The written scope is the place for these details.
Unsure whether something is included? Point to the relevant wording and describe what you need. Connect the website service that interests you to a specific scope question so the conversation stays focused on your project.
04 / Approvals
Make decisions clear
Who reviews the work, who confirms a decision and how should feedback be collected? Refer to the version or deliverable you mean, and distinguish a question from a requested revision or approval.
Review arrangements remain specific to the engagement. Use your written terms to identify how a decision becomes an approval, and make the distinction clear when discussing a preview or exchanging feedback.
05 / Changes
Bring changes back to scope
A new audience, added feature or different direction can change what the work involves. Describe the proposed change and why it matters, then ask how it relates to the agreed scope.
Use the written engagement terms to confirm revision allowances and how changes are agreed and recorded. Bring proposed adjustments to that conversation so everyone can refer to the same description of the work.
06 / Assets
Materials and access
Before supplying copy, photographs or brand files, check that you can authorize their intended use. Flag licence restrictions, required credits and material supplied by others. Use the written agreement to clarify deliverables and usage rights, including the intended uses of any shared files.
For system access, describe the task and account involved first. Keep passwords, payment information and confidential records out of an initial inquiry. Ask which access and transfer method is appropriate.
07 / Handoff
Know what delivery includes
Identify the deliverables, formats and destinations described in your agreement. Clarify which documentation, training, account administration or ongoing support is included, and how those pieces fit together. Delivery and continuing services follow the terms agreed for the engagement.
External links lead to separate websites. Review the provider’s terms and privacy information before using its services. For a service relevant to your project, use the engagement discussion to clarify its role and any agreement-specific arrangements.
08 / Questions
