1. Current Situation – Existing Site Goals

The current site has an outdated content management system (CMS) .HARS also have

an old PHPBB Forum as a stand alone site.

The sites main objectives are to provide up-to-date Historic Aircraft Restoration

information to the target markets with a major focus around the current ongoing HARS

Project teams.

2. Identified Limitations – Current Site Limitations The current site, while based on a Content Management System and allowing for self management of site content, is not responsive to the needs of clients on mobile based devices. Upgrading challenges with old out dated Forum. Access to an online sales portal for clients to buy merchandise. Permissions locked down based on roles and categories on the website.

- Email access - [email protected]

- Updating content is currently an issue due to out dated CMS

- Mobile Capabilities - Optimisation

- Social Media Integration to Facebook and LinkedIn

- Blogging engine to keep news current.

- Secure Zone – Page Lockdowns

3. Options and Alternatives – Our Recommendations A refreshed website design incorporating the prominent HARS styling’s and branding. The content within the existing site is consistent with the site goals and works well from a Search Engine ranking perspective. Development of a mobile compliant design will utilize the same menu and content structure – site visitors will be directed to the appropriate site based on automated detection of the client device. Consideration should be given to the incorporation of Social Media links and real-time data feeds to allow for the promotion of the business services through these mediums. The standard functionality of image galleries and contact forms are all included to increase the organisation look and feel. Implementation of forum and content migration from PHPBB to Joomla equivalent.

Implementation of secure zone for amending site administrator’s access to on certain

content. The standard functionality of image galleries and contact forms are all included

to increase the organisation look and feel.

Social media.

Once the base site design is finalised, the mobile version will be prepared and
