BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We are an office of an elected, very young politician. In the office I was responsible to establishing a new website for the politician, which has current technical standards and serves as an entry point for citizens for the politician's work.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baubauwerk, and what were your goals?

The original website was a standard template. However, as a young politician we needed an up-to-date one that combines seriousness with coolness, which is rather difficult in a political setting. Moreover, the political topics we work on are not the coolest ones.

Therefore, the website needed to be a cool entry point for young but also for old people, therefore creativity was of major importance for us. In addition, we required some integrations with third-party software. In addition, we hired the company to design and program html templates for our newsletter system.

Online search, first talks and initial offers. Deciding factors were personal feeling and creativity in combination with professionality of previous projects.

We had several meetings over the course of the project whenever there was the need to give input from our site. We started of with pitching what we needed. After some weeks we received initial design ideas which we talked about. After two more iterations the design choice was made by us and the website development on Wordpress could begin.

This process was very professional and let to a first version of the website. After some more requirements which came up from our site, the website could go live within a couple of months.

three: CEO, Head of Design, Programmer

I hold a very close relationship with the CEO, who was responsible for the running of the overall project. His project management style exceeded my expectations and made the work very smooth. Timeliness and the communication via phone and email were perfect.

The creativity with which the team approached the unusual task we gave them is impressive. And also the flexibility in creating very individual solutions for integrations for us.
