FROM WEBSITE TO SERVICE

Clear for customers.
Useful for your team.

01

Understand the product

Model range, applications, configurations and verified specifications.

02

Technical library

Separate documents by model, revision and access level.

03

Service portal

Installed equipment, requests, assigned specialists and service history.

INTERACTIVE EXAMPLE

Your workflow.
Try it in action.

Try the journey “Model and serial number → Request details → Specialist assignment → Service follow-up”. Change the inputs to see when the next step becomes available.

An educational model with fictional companies, values and rules. All actions stay in the browser; no data is submitted. This illustrates a possible solution, not a connected system or a client case study.

    BIG FISH · AVIATION & DRONES

    Aircraft, missions and maintenance.

    For aircraft and civilian drone manufacturers, we design catalogues that make configurations easy to compare. Payload, intended use and limitations appear alongside technical materials and a consultation request.

    A service portal connects each aircraft to its documentation, support requests and maintenance plan. Task preparation, approval and completed-work records have distinct states. Maps and telemetry use a clear visual hierarchy without overwhelming the screen.

    SOLUTION GUIDE

    Behind an interface
    that works.

    Design decisions, data, permissions and acceptance checks. Exact business rules and integrations are defined for your organisation.

    Aviation and drones / 01

    Design and the user journey

    Aviation products benefit from careful scale and detail. Use strong product imagery, clear catalogue views and meaningful model comparison. Distinguish civilian applications, configurations and operating conditions from promotional language. Interactive presentation supports product exploration but does not replace approved technical documentation.

    During design, document representative screens and expected user actions. For each decision, identify what editors maintain, what comes from another system and who owns its freshness.

    Acceptance check: A first-time mobile visitor can find the relevant service and next step.

    Aviation and drones / 02

    Workflow and states

    The workflow connects these stages: Model and serial number → Request details → Specialist assignment → Service follow-up. Each transition has an owner, inputs and a visible result. Before implementation, map the normal journey, correction, cancellation and repeated actions. Interface status must represent a confirmed state rather than a button click.

    Acceptance check: Returns and retries preserve input without duplicating the result.

    Aviation and drones / 03

    Data model and documents

    Distinguish model, modification, serialised unit and document revision. Service requests reference the specific unit and attachments. A new manual revision must not silently replace the document used to close an earlier request. Keep service history separate from public product content.

    Acceptance check: Reference data changes do not overwrite an agreed document.

    Aviation and drones / 04

    Roles and access boundaries

    The public website exposes approved product information. Operators see their units and requests, service teams assigned work and editors the technical publication workflow. The interface does not automatically authorise servicing or operation; authorised specialists make those decisions within the organisation’s established process.

    Acceptance check: A different organisation cannot retrieve a restricted file by direct URL.

    Aviation and drones / 05

    Integrations and data ownership

    Equipment data may come from ERP or a lifecycle system, and service work from a specialist platform. Exchange only agreed fields and documents. The web portal does not control flights or replace onboard or critical systems. Integration failure leaves a request queued with a clear status.

    Acceptance check: An unavailable source never appears as a confirmed success.

    Aviation and drones / 06

    Errors, retries and recovery

    For long operations, acknowledge receipt and retain the result identifier. Retrying after a connection loss must not create a second record. Separate user-correctable errors from cases requiring a specialist, preserving input under the agreed handling rules. Design empty, loading, forbidden and unavailable states before implementation rather than after launch.

    Acceptance check: A repeated event does not apply an operation twice.

    Aviation and drones / 07

    Content, search and discovery

    Support distinct audiences: buyers, engineers, operators and service partners. Link applications to suitable models and permitted documentation. Product owners approve technical characteristics before publication. Illustrations and example values remain clearly separated from certified product information.

    Acceptance check: Search and filters lead to useful pages without endless duplicates.

    Aviation and drones / 08

    First release and evolution

    The first release covers the complete journey from “Model and serial number” to “Service follow-up”, supporting pages and editable fields. Test mobile views, roles, forms, documents and integration failures in staging. Save the previous state and define rollback before switching. Handover includes editor instructions, the exchange design and a checklist for future releases.

    Acceptance check: Recovery has been tested on a copy, and editors can maintain fields independently.

    FAQ

    Before we start

    Can we launch the website before the portal?

    Yes. Start with structure, design, content and a complete enquiry journey. Design catalogue entities and identifiers with the future portal in mind to avoid another data migration.

    Can you connect our existing systems?

    We first inspect the supported interface, permissions and test environment. Then agree data scope and system responsibilities. If no suitable API exists, assess an alternative and its limitations separately.

    What determines cost and timing?

    Page types, content volume, roles, integrations and first-release scope. Discovery produces a structure, prototype and staged estimate. This page’s demonstration is neither a finished system nor a fixed-price promise.
