If your organization is considering a website re-build, there are some important questions you need to ask:

• Is our current website failing? If so, how?
• How is our current website successful?
• How does the website feed into our organizational objectives?
• What is our digital environment? Which websites, platforms, and and other digital tools make up our full system?
• Who should be involved in the re-build process? Who's approval will be required?
• Are there external timelines or other factors that will be critical to the re-build?
• What are we looking for in our agency partner?
• Which components of the re-build (if any) will be handled internally?

These questions can help you determine:

• If now is the right time for a re-build.
• Your team and committee.
• The scope and requirements.
• The timing and milestones.
• If the re-build needs focus on design and branding, functionality and amalgamation, or both.
