Common deliverables are:

• Strategic Objectives Document: outlines what you’re trying to achieve through your product/idea and roughly how you plan on achieving it.
• Technical Summary: A more technical document which gives a technology-oriented perspective on what you’re trying to accomplish/develop and roughly how that will be achieved. May include technology recommendations and assessments.
• Walk-Throughs: These documents often give valuable insight into how your product will be used by “normal” users. I will work with you to determine key user groups of your target market and then provide detailed break-downs on how they might interact with your system.
• Detailed Technical Specification: This is the document that you can hand to a developer and actually stand a chance of getting back a system that resembles what you were expecting. It will cover in depth things like technologies to be used, techniques to be employed, error handling, data validation, database model, structure and a whole lot more.
• Wireframes: Getting a rough idea of how a system or web application will look is invaluable to figuring out if it makes sense and if it meets expectations. Wireframes are a great, low-fidelity way of doing that without spending too much time on design, and they allow you to quickly iterate through alternatives to come up with something that works.
• Hiring Guidelines: If you’re planning on hiring an individual (or a team) of developers or other people to actually build your product, I can help you define the roles that will be required and what sort of skills each person will need. Knowing what you’re looking for makes finding it that much easier.
