Our company, Amigos Manufacturing Ltd., is a Métis-owned start-up based in Alberta. We hope to have a platform with features and designs that can enable our target market to view our offerings on a website.

We would like to collaborate with students to produce a design prototype and website draft that helps users navigate our site and find up-to-date information.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Conducting desk research on our industry, our target market, and desired website features.
• Identifying and researching useful web pages that can be included on our website.
• Designing one-page brand templates for our company (Amigos) and subsidiaries (Caribou)
• Designing a wireframe prototype for our website and potential logo designs.
• Prototyping multiple versions of a design that includes the desired website features.
• Creating new pages for the website, with our assistance in providing the content.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

• Recommending potential upgrades or features that can be included in the website
• Suggesting improvements to the overall website.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Research justifying the creation of new web pages.
• Creation of new pages for our website.
• Design of branding.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Understanding of our industry, our target market, and desired website features
• Development of a website prototype and draft that is publishable
• Verification of the prototype and improvements based on feedback
• Development of a logo and brand template(s)

Final deliverables should include:

• A website prototype and draft
• A 10-minute presentation, with pdf
