Technical and functional specification

A technical and functional specification is a detailed description of what a new website, e-shop or application should do and how. It is the most important document of the whole project. Without it, suppliers can easily deliver something other than you expected, budgets grow and deadlines slip. A quality technical specification is therefore the best insurance for budget and deadlines.

We prepare specifications based on interviews with you, analysis of your processes and our experience developing and marketing e-shops. We help you choose the features you really need and leave out those that would only raise the price. We write specifications that both management and developers can understand.

What the specification contains

• Project goals, target groups and key usage scenarios
• Website structure, page templates and navigation
• Description of features, administration and user roles
• Integrations with external systems and data flows
• SEO, tracking, speed, security and accessibility requirements
• Acceptance criteria and a testing plan

When you need a technical specification

We recommend a specification before every larger project, such as a new e-shop, a custom website, a B2B portal or a systems integration. It is essential when selecting a supplier and when applying for grants. It also helps in-house development by aligning business and IT expectations.

Technical specification: frequently asked questions

Here are answers to the questions clients ask us most often in this area. If you cannot find what you are looking for, write to us or give us a call and we will be happy to help. The first consultation with us is always free.

How long does it take to prepare a specification?

For smaller projects we prepare a specification within one to two weeks. Large projects with many integrations take longer. Part of the work happens in workshops with you.

Do I have to implement the project with you?

No, the specification is your document and you can use it with any supplier. We are happy to prepare our own implementation quote as well. The decision is entirely yours.

What if requirements change during the project?

Changes are normal and a well-structured specification makes them easy to manage. We describe each change and estimate its impact on price and timeline. The project stays under control.
