Project Execution

1. Design and Discovery Process

Ebizon began with a detailed requirement analysis phase to understand the complete redevelopment scope. The team broke down the requirements into clear, actionable tasks, identified dependencies, defined delivery timelines, and prepared a detailed project plan.

During discovery, Ebizon reviewed the required website structure and identified the core pages that needed to be recreated in WordPress:

• Home Page.
• Documents Page.
• Officers & Directors Page.
• Committees Page.
• Contact Us Page.

The Home Page was planned to include an overview of Ampthill Rayon Workers Inc., its mission statement, organization background, union profile content, and key callouts such as “Support Your Union.” The Documents Page was planned as a central repository for union-related agreements, contracts, documents, and image showcases.

This phase helped ensure the redeveloped website would stay familiar to existing users while becoming more stable, structured, and easier to manage.

2. Development and Customization

After the discovery phase, Ebizon set up a WordPress staging environment and began redevelopment. The website was rebuilt using GeneratePress to retain the design direction and Elementor Page Builder to recreate the website pages.

The redevelopment scope included:

• Home Page: Organization overview, mission statement, background, and union callouts.
• Documents Page: Repository for agreements, contracts, documents, and images.
• Officers & Directors Page: Static tabular layout for office bearers, leadership roles, names, designations, and departments.
• Committees Page: Clean tables or grouped sections showing committee names, roles, and member listings.
• Contact Us Page: Address change note, address change button, and official contact details.

The Contact Us page also included a button redirecting users to an external Wufoo form for address changes.

The redevelopment was completed with a mobile-responsive approach, using readable images, viewport meta tags, and layouts that worked smoothly in both landscape and portrait modes without distortion or stretching.

3. Content Restructuring in WordPress

Since the project was a redevelopment, the focus was on rebuilding and restructuring the available website content within WordPress rather than performing a platform-to-platform migration.

Ebizon recreated and organized the website’s key content areas, including:

• Organization overview.
• Mission statement.
• Union background and profile content.
• Documents, agreements, and contracts.
• Officer and director information.
• Committee details.
• Contact information.
• Address change instructions and external form redirect.

The content was structured in WordPress so the client could manage updates more easily after launch. This helped create a cleaner, more maintainable website while preserving the essential information users needed.

4. URL Structure and SEO Preservation

The redevelopment included SEO-friendly implementation to help the new WordPress website remain accessible and discoverable after launch.

Ebizon planned to include visible and invisible tags such as keywords and meta tags for primary links and landing pages. Google Analytics tracking was also planned across all pages to help monitor website traffic, user behavior, popular content, visitor geography, and search terms used to find the website.

As part of SEO preservation, the redeveloped WordPress website included:

• SEO-optimized theme setup.
• Clean page structure.
• Mobile-responsive implementation.
• Metadata support for important pages.
• GA4 tracking.
• Stable hosting recommendation.
• Launch checks to reduce broken access issues.

Where needed, old page paths could be mapped to the new WordPress structure so returning users could continue accessing important pages with minimal disruption.

5. Thorough Testing and Quality Assurance

Ebizon followed a structured QA process to validate website stability, functionality, and launch readiness.

The QA process included:

• Project planning.
• Development validation.
• Manual QA testing.
• Functional validation.
• Defect logging.
• Bug fixing.
• Re-testing fixed defects.
• Final stability checks before launch.

The QA team executed manual test scenarios, validated website functionality, identified and logged defects, retested fixes, and ensured that the website was stable and ready for launch.

6. Launch and Ongoing Support

Before launch, the website went through Client Acceptance Testing. During this phase, the client team reviewed the redeveloped website, shared feedback, and reported any bugs through Zoho issues. Ebizon then supported the Client Acceptance Testing meeting to confirm that the required functionality was ready before deployment.

Ebizon also included training and documentation as part of the engagement. Two online training sessions of 1–2 hours each were planned using a “train the trainer” approach. After the sessions, Ebizon provided documentation to help the client team understand how to manage the new WordPress website.

The project was managed using an Agile approach with coordination between the project manager, developer, QA team, and client. Communication was planned through email, Basecamp, Microsoft Teams, and Zoho ticket management.
