The primary goal of the website redesign project is to create a sustainable platform that reflects the values and objectives of ACT Canada. The redesigned website will focus on delivering essential services and resources to members, retaining membership, and preventing members from switching to competitors. Additionally, the website will enhance functionality by creating a user-friendly membership portal to streamline access for current and new members, rebuilding the website content through WordPress to ensure it is engaging, informative, and aligned with ACT Canada’s goals, implementing an efficient event management system to provide detailed information about events and promote community involvement, and offering a wide range of resources to download to support members and promote sustainable mobility initiatives, with the additional feature of allowing members to upload PDF resources to the website. These improvements will also feature enhanced sign-up processes aimed at increasing membership and providing comprehensive information about events to foster community involvement and support, thereby increasing engagement, attracting new members, and effectively promoting sustainable mobility initiatives. The redesign will also facilitate interactions with municipal and federal governments, ensuring the association can continue to secure funding and support for its programs.

The Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres of Ottawa (CHRC) serves a vital role in supporting local communities, particularly the vulnerable and at-risk populations. Recognizing the limitations of their outdated, non-functional website, CHRC aimed to rebuild their online presence to better meet community needs. A major issue was the dysfunctional ‘Find your Centre’ map, crucial for helping residents locate their nearest resource center.
To address these challenges, the project followed a user-centered design approach, ensuring the new website is accessible, mobile-friendly, and easy to navigate. Key steps included:
- Needs Assessment: Engaged community members and stakeholders to identify essential features, particularly a functional map.
- Design: Crafted a modern, visually appealing website with a refreshed logo that retains the CHRC’s signature blue color, complemented by a secondary color, and removes the 25-year mark.
- Development: Utilized WordPress to enable CHRC staff to easily update content. The site features three primary pages: two informational and one interactive map page.
- Testing: Conducted thorough testing, focusing on the map’s functionality to ensure accuracy and ease of use.
- Deployment: Launched the site with reliable hosting, integrating SEO best practices and social media features to enhance visibility and engagement.
The revamped website structure includes:
- Modern Design: User-friendly, mobile-responsive, and visually appealing interface.
- Functional Map: An easy-to-use, accurate map with color-coded catchment areas to help users quickly find their nearest center.
- CMS and Hosting: WordPress as a reliable hosting that allows CHRC staff to maintain and update the site efficiently.
- SEO and Social Media Integration: Improved search engine optimization and social media features to increase community outreach and engagement.
The CHRC website overhaul ensures that the community, especially those most in need, can easily access the vital services and resources provided by the CHRC network, fostering a more supportive and connected community in Ottawa.
Identifying duplicates in CRM systems is crucial to maintain data accuracy, streamline operations, and improve customer interactions by ensuring reliable information and efficient resource utilization. The scope of this project is to build a tool that helps notify business users when they have a duplicate entry for a client, they have done business with. The tool will check the CRM for current records holding the same fields.
Additionally, our tool provides a configuration setting to allow users to specify their detection criteria.
Ensuring optimal performance is crucial, so our tool is designed to process duplicate detection tasks for up to 10,000 records within 5 minutes and support at least 100 concurrent users without performance degradation. We prioritize usability, making the tool intuitive and user-friendly, matching current Zoho CRM standards, and providing context-sensitive help and tooltips. Security is paramount, with role-based access control and AES 256 encryption for all data. Additionally, our tool is compatible with the latest Zoho CRM version and functions correctly on major web browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.

Instead of visiting multiple merchants and/or searching individual store websites for particular products, users can perform a single targeted search using Shopful.
Greeny Organics, an online store that specializes in selling Nigerian cuisine, has collaborated with our team to design a mobile application interface for their upcoming mobile app. We worked closely with the founder of Greeny Organics, Chimmuanya Ortutu, to understand the business and its needs. To aid in this process, we conducted user research by developing personas, mood boards, vision boards, and user journey maps.
Using the information gathered, we began by creating low-fidelity wireframes for content structuring. We then progressed to prototyping the app’s main functions to gather user feedback. Taking into account the insights from user testing, we developed high-fidelity wireframes and completed the prototyping of the entire app.
All of this was achieved within a ten-week timeline, with regular team meetings and ongoing communication.
