Website requirements vary widely even when two organizations want the same page count. These tiers indicate increasing depth in research, content architecture, component design, integrations, governance, testing, and rollout support. Final scope is confirmed only after understanding the audience, content, required actions, internal ownership, and technical environment.
Scope built around maintainability
Foundation suits a focused corporate presence with a clear page set and standard enquiry journey. Growth supports richer content, reusable sections, multiple conversion paths, and stronger search implementation. Enterprise is for complex sites involving departments, content roles, integrations, migration, policy requirements, or phased release.
Discovery determines page inventory, custom functionality, content responsibilities, design direction, forms, analytics, accessibility expectations, integrations, hosting, and ongoing maintenance. The proposal then records what is included, what you must supply, revision checkpoints, browser coverage, launch responsibilities, and any recurring third-party cost.
All options prioritize responsive behavior, readable structure, performance, accessibility foundations, and an implementation that stays updatable after launch. Exact timelines depend on content readiness, feedback cycles, integrations, and approval speed.
