Volan Design Completes Website Design and Development for www.SAB101.org by diCarta, Inc.
BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30, 2001--Volan Design:
Easy-to-Use, One-Stop Educational Portal Design Provides Information
on Revenue Management Best Practices
Volan Design(TM) LLC, an award-winning international product, brand and digital media development company, today announced the launch of SAB101.org, a website designed and developed by Volan Design for diCarta(TM), Inc., the leader in Internet-based, business-to-business contract and revenue management solutions.
SAB101.org is an informational portal focused on Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines concerning revenue recognition geared toward financial professionals.
Design Goals
Volan Design and diCarta identified three key design goals for the SAB101.org website. Primarily, the portal must be very easy to use. This was accomplished with a user-centered design that provides a clean, intuitive interface, organizing and enhancing a large amount of information from a variety of sources. Secondly, users have to be able to find and utilize information with a minimum number of clicks. Volan Design and the diCarta team created an information architecture that is flexible enough to allow users access to vital information, yet scalable enough to accommodate a growing amount of content in the future. Finally, due to the immediate nature of the SAB101 topic, the website has to be easy to update and maintain. The website has been structurally designed so that content can be easily added without altering the user's experience; in addition, the technical implementation of SAB101.org is highly scalable.
``Designing such a text-intensive site for the intended audience presented Volan Design with some unique design challenges. In response, I believe we have crafted a very elegant, very solid foundation that will prove to be a valuable knowledge base and resource center for anyone who is interested in keeping up with the latest on SAB101,'' says Gino Zahnd, senior interactive designer at Volan Design.
