For public bodies, NGOs and donor-funded projects in Samoa and the Pacific: websites and finance systems your own staff can run, an auditor can trust, and your organisation owns.
Most organisations get a website built and then lose control of it. The developer holds the keys, nobody agreed who may publish what, and the site slowly falls out of date.
One person holds the logins, and the domain is registered in someone else's name.
Anyone can publish, or no one can, because nobody agreed who approves what.
Staff were never trained, so every change waits for the developer.
Notices, tenders and annual reports go up late or not at all, and the organisation looks less accountable than it is.
Drafts go to review before they are published, each person has a role, and every change is logged.
The domain is registered in your organisation's name, and you receive a handover pack with logins and documentation.
Content staff and IT staff are trained separately, each with a written manual.
English and Samoan content, designed for phones and slow connections, and checked for accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) before handover.
Choose the sections you need: News, Notices and Tenders, Documents library, Board directory and Enquiries, with the finance apps that sit behind them.
Two platforms we built and run ourselves, the same way we build for clients. They take bookings, record payments and work in tala, so we know first-hand what it takes to keep a website running in the Pacific.
An online booking engine that accommodation providers run themselves.
A car hire marketplace for local operators on Upolu and Savai'i.
Coral Isles Public Authority is a fictional public body we built to show the kit: two designs, pick-and-choose sections, an approval step before anything is published, and an English and Samoan switch. Try it yourself, or we will walk you through it on your discovery call.
We learn how your organisation actually works and where your numbers live today.
You receive: a requirements note and a content and controls policy (who writes, who approves, who publishes).
We agree what to connect, what to build and what it costs. No surprises.
You receive: two design options, a site map and a fixed quote, signed off before we build.
We customise what you have, build what is missing and link it together. Typically live in weeks.
You receive: a working site on a test address, tested twice with your own staff.
Your people learn to run them, so you are not dependent on us.
You receive: a content manual and an administration manual.
We keep everything running and growing with you.
You receive: a go-live check, a handover pack and agreed support days.
Each output is signed off by you before the next step starts, so payments can follow milestones.
