Working With Clients
The 10 things we consider before we agree to undertake a project for a client!
At HDC we get offered a great deal of work, however we don't automatically accept every project we are offered! Below is the list of things we look for in a good project and a good client!
- Is the perspective client clear about what they want to achieve from the project?
- Does the prospective client have a real world idea as to what things cost and how long projects actually take?
- Does the prospective client have someone in charge of the project in order to ensure that there are no communication gaps?
- What will the perspective client supply or resource as part of the project (research data, visitor use data, maps or in house experts, etc?)
- Does the prospective client have a project time line or task list already in mind? When will the project have to be completed and is that a reasonable time to do it?
- Who will be the person(s) reviewing and approving draft materials and how active will they be in the project from start to finish?
- Does the prospective client actually have funding “in hand”, and what will their payment schedule be in paying invoices?
- How receptive do we think the prospective client will be to new or creative ideas as opposed to thinking about the ways things have “always been done”?
- Do we think that the project will be fun or interesting to do or do we see potential “problems” ahead with it? Any problem politics involved?
- Do we feel that we and the perspective client will make a good team and be able to successfully work together?
