long-term partnerships with its clients. These are rooted in comprehensive
needs assessments, conducted on individual bases and followed by the design of
tailor-made solutions aimed not only at meeting individual needs, but indeed at exceeding them.

the company offers its clients the full benefit of technological advancement.
Staying Ahead
Always abreast of and ready to implement the latest developments in cyber technology, Equadoor creates premier
e-business solutions through innovative application of communication, information and marketing technology. This is achieved in line with the company’s business approach and philosophy, both of which place
at the forefront client service and satisfaction.
The Method
The realisation of clients’ needs starts with aligning the diverse talents the company has at its disposal to
interface not only with the client’s requirements, but also with their corporate culture per se.
No single methodology is employed.
Instead, the company implements as many methodologies as are required to provide the Perfect Solution, always taking
cognisance of
the nature of the assignment,
the needs of clients’ customers and markets, as well as of the
corporate culture within the client’s organisation.
In this way, the Equadoor team, equipped with its Multiple Methodology Approach and a skills pool finely attuned to the
client’s needs, steadily advances along a strategy both understood and approved of by the client and, in terms of budget, target and deadline, comes up trumps time and again!
As designers co-operate with the development team and the client, as crucial decisions regarding site structure,
navigation, brand consistency and aesthetics are made involving all stakeholders in the creative process, sophisticated sites result that effortlessly lead the end-user through the interactive experience.
The Elements of Method
In line with its stated Differentiators, Equadoor meticulously guides each individual assignment through a series of
stages, the number and sequence of which are determined by the specific needs of the client.
These Process Elements include
Information Design;
Interaction Design;
Graphic Design; and
Design Technologies.
Information Design Before embarking on new projects, experienced designers carefully examine and architect
the navigation of the projects and the relationship between the content components.
Interaction Design This Process Element examines the relationship between the end-user and the project
interface. As the interface is developed, new ways are explored to promote the client's unique brand or business essence, engage the user and to elucidate the content of the project.
Graphic Design During this phase, the project takes on form, colour and texture, acquiring a ‘look and
feel’, a definitive personality.
Design Technologies Equadoor constantly strives to incorporate the latest technologies into their projects in
an appropriate and meaningful way.
In doing so, however, the company does not compromise objectivity: So, for example, a proposal to incorporate emerging
technologies into a solution would never be laid to table without an objective look at possible disadvantages - potential benefits such as increased interactivity and brand experience would always be weighed against
realities such as limited bandwidth ...
The Team
Equadoor consists of a dynamic team with extensive experience and qualifications in the fields of marketing, web
design, graphic design and programming. It is a team committed to excellence in service and creating new avenues of business opportunity for its clients.
