A website design company is seasoned in fulfilling their clients’ requirements and meeting deadlines. However, a company can only satisfy their client when their client specifies 
what they want, in a clear and concise manner. This way, the website design company can easily distribute the task; calculate the time it would take to build such a website and how much it will cost. But, in some cases clients often forget to mention some details and requirements which can prove troublesome for both client and the website design company because the client needs these changes or new features whereas, adding these features to the website can mess up the entire work project for the web designer and add costs to the project.
Therefore, before starting a project the company should perform an analysis of the prospective client when they show an interest in hiring the company for website design. A well performed need analysis can save time, money, and a lot of headache for both parties. Professional website design companies have 2 – 3 pages of need analysis form, which covers all the aspects of a website that the client may or may not require. Asking for such details from the client can help him to reconsider some changes in his website prior to the starting of work.
Following are some key elements of a Need Analysis form that must be cleared before starting on your clients’ project.
Company Details
This section simply requires the basic information of the company, such as name, contact person, person in charge etc. This section gives you details about who will be giving the orders and who will let you know to start working on the project.
Graphic Design
Details for the website’s visual appearance are to be mentioned in this section of the form. Details about design and layout or colors to be used are not as essential as much as how 
effectively the website to its readers. Adding good colors and proper layout is pretty simple for professionals, but determining the requirements of clients about the communication aspect of the website can only be determined by the client himself. Graphic design is one of the key elements of a website design and getting all the required information is essential to making a perfect website that fits the requirements of your client. This also helps to ensure that you deliver your clients work to him on a timely basis.
Technical Requirements
This part of the need analysis form will discover the system administration needs of the website project. This can include information regarding website hosting, domain name registration and other websites that are to be included.
It is best that you assist your client while he / she is filling out this form because there can be some things which your client may not be able to understand on their own. Making sure that your client provides all the required information that you need to build a good website. Personally assisting him to fill out the form will surely help your company to get the most information from your client in order to ensure customer satisfaction.
