Providing services to the disabled community was the dream of Don and Lisa James. Don, who suffers from Cerebral Palsy, and Lisa, who is confined to a wheelchair, formed D & L Consultants to do just that. They needed a way to create an online community for the disabled, and get their message out to that community. They turned to Moose Enterprises, who created a website they could manage and keep up to date on their own. Don now posts legislative updates regularly, and is able to build a database of links to other online resources through the custom tools built by Moose Enterprises

Discover Re http://www.discover-re.com

Discover Re needed to revamp their out of date website and turned to Moose Enterprises for the solution. Discover Re wanted their site to "grab" the client right away, and give them more than just marketing fluff. They wanted their site to be a business tool for their business partners. Moose Enterprises created a vibrant Flash introduction, enhanced with an original music score. Moose Enterprises then conducted several design session with Discover Re to create the organizational structure of the site, and ultimately created a navigational structure that was tailored specifically to the different constituents that would use the site. Moose Enterprises also integrated their existing Policy Forms database into their website, giving their customers and business partners the ability to download forms right from their browser. The complexity of design, utilization of Flash, and the integration of the customer's Microsoft SQLServer databases made this a difficult website to implement.

Eric Nelson Architects http://www.ena-ma.com

Eric Nelson Architect (ENA) is an architectural firm located in Boston. In this case, the client wanted a site that would showcase the firm's design abilities. The look and feel of the site was developed by an outside designer. Moose Enterprises translated the exacting design to the web, managing to balance the design objectives with the limitations of web technologies. Moose Enterprises developed a short Flash introductory menu, and created an underlying structure that ENA can maintain on its own even today. The use of Flash technologies, and the behavior of certain design elements in the look and feel made this a moderately difficult website to develop.

The Jane Coffin Childs Memorial Fund is a fund for medical research. They needed a way to capture grant applications directly from the web, and integrate these into their existing custom applications. Moose Enterprises devised a simple way for them to collect and load these grant applications.

Life Structure http://www.lifestructure.net/

Life Structure is a personal fitness company located in Huntington, CT. Life Structure wanted to create their own website, and originally engaged Moose Enterprises to provide some instruction on the use of web technologies. However, Life Structure recognized the design capabilities Moose Enterprises had to offer, and engaged them to create a "skeleton" site that would be easy to develop and maintain. Moose Enterprises developed the look and feel of the site, and created a technical architecture that would allow Life Structure to develop their own content, and add new pages to their site efficiently. The technical architecture included the use of Server Side Includes, that make elements, such as menus, dynamic. They can then be edited in one location, and the changes are reflected throughout the site. This arrangement will allow Life Structure to maintain their own site in the future. Because of this, the site was developed relatively inexpensively, while providing close to 50 pages of content.

The design approach yielded a site that was simple to construct, and therefore was inexpensive to build.

Built under tight time frames, this site shows what Moose Enterprises can do "in a pinch". The number of pages, as well as the database application make this a moderate to difficult website to develop.
