Mapping diverse stakeholder requirements
Horder Healthcare have a wide variety of stakeholders. The creation of Personas and Customer Journeys ensured that every user’s needs were identified, mapped and catered for. We conducted Competitor Profiling to position them in the marketplace and ensure that they were clearly differentiated.

Organising a vast repository of information
A full Content Inventory allowed us to assess existing content. A Content Strategy enabled us to organise and identify any additional needs. And then a detailed Functional Specification itemised every technical detail. All these elements formed part of a Staged Engagement providing the client with a complete blueprint of the site prior to commitment.

Prioritising content through wireframing
Creating wireframes of the navigation system and all key pages enabled us to test alternative layouts for usability. We were therefore able prioritise content and structure with the client without the destruction of design elements.







An engaging content library
We ensured the extensive library of content is easily browsed with colour-coded categorisation and related topic function.
A simple way to find treatments
A directory of treatments and diagnosis can be browsed using either an A–Z index and an interactive body map.
Comparing experts with ease
Horder’s extensive list of consultants and physiotherapists are indexed and filtered by profession, specialism and location.
