Providing Comprehensive Technology Strategy to Further your Communications Goals.

Website Design

 

Our team of creative designers and expert developers can help you build a website to your specifications, integrating your online strategy while providing you with a fresh, professional and interactive new look.

A first-rate website is necessary to reach out to constituents, voters or members of your organization.

We work with each client every step of the way to ensure that your website exceeds industry standards and expectations. Our designers and developers collaborate with you to design the look and feel of your website based on your functional needs, rather than giving you a cookie cutter template. 

Our five step process includes: 

  • A comprehensive needs assessment to analyze the strength and weaknesses of your current website.

  • A thorough site design process, where we work to create a unique and inspirational look that matches your style.

  • Coding and site implementation to make your design a reality.

  • Debugging all code and verification of the integrity of your website applications.

  • Comprehensive training of staff on our easy-to-use content management system.

Beyond the design and content of your website, DCS is dedicated to helping you set up a unique tracking and reporting system. DCS will install Google Analytics and design it to fit the needs of the type of information you want. Your office or organization will have the ability to analyze the traffic to your website right down to who is clicking where and where they are clicking from.

 

alt Integration

For congressional offices, DCS is able to integrate Lockheed Martin’s IQ Constituent Management software, Capcor or any approved CRM into your website. DCS dynamic webforms integrate directly with all CRM systems. Information like scheduling, eNews signups, contact information, flag requests, and others will all be delivered to your CRM system in real time. We like to call it instant integration.
