Website consultancy.
Clear thinking, practical help.

A useful specification explains the user, the task and the expected behaviour. I can help define those details for a CRM, quoting tool, e-commerce integration or customer portal, including data flows, permissions and important exceptions.

That makes conversations with your internal team or external agency more productive. It also helps identify the features that are essential now, the assumptions that need testing and the work that can sensibly wait until the first version is in use.

I bring practical experience of designing, developing, optimising and caring for websites. That means I can discuss the consequences of a recommendation: how it affects the content team, what an integration needs, which ongoing costs it introduces and how the finished work will be maintained.

Digital Space is an example of a relationship that includes consultancy alongside development, maintenance, support and wider online activity. The point is to fit into the client’s business and contribute useful technical judgement, rather than insist that every task becomes a full rebuild.

I can contribute to meetings, review a proposed approach, assess a release or take ownership of a defined technical task. You remain in control of the project and its existing supplier relationships. The arrangement is agreed around the decisions and work you need help with.

An initial review may reveal that your current team already has the right solution. In that case, useful consultancy can be as simple as confirming the approach, clarifying a risk or helping prioritise the next stage.

Tell me what you are planning, who is involved and which question needs answering. I will suggest a sensible review or consultancy scope and explain the information needed to make it useful.

There is no fixed consultancy price hidden behind the website package starting price. A short review, an ongoing advisory role and detailed technical discovery are different pieces of work, and I quote them accordingly.
