PROJECT GUIDE / Spatial & service experience
Connecting Online Promises to On-site Service
Carry information from digital touchpoints through to the on-site arrival and service experience.
Define the Task First
Carry information from digital touchpoints through to arrival and service on site. At the outset, review existing materials alongside typical use cases to identify where problems arise, who they affect and which existing content needs to remain in use.
The scope of connecting online promises with on-site service should reflect the business, its audiences and delivery requirements. The following offers a framework for discussion and planning.
Three Stages of Work
Promise Checklist
Compile the times, locations, services and participation requirements stated in online descriptions, booking confirmations and event notifications.
On-Site Handover
Check that entrance signage, reception information, waiting notices and staff guidance align with the information provided online.
Changes and Feedback
Update relevant channels when venues, times or services change, and ensure feedback from the site informs the next content update.
What to Prepare Before We Talk
- Site plans, entry points, primary circulation paths, and service facilities
- Arrival methods and typical tasks for different user groups
- Site photography, operational guidelines, and information maintenance responsibilities
Representative samples are a good place to start. Past versions, real-world photos and typical feedback illustrate the problem better than style references alone; any missing information can be gathered during project discussions.
How We Discuss and Review
- Arrival: Can first-time visitors confirm their location?
- Navigation: Is guidance continuous and clear at key decision points?
- Maintenance: Can names, events, and temporary changes be updated promptly?
Clear handover materials are essential when separate teams manage online communication and on-site delivery.
Each review round records confirmed directions, required changes and who owns them. Before moving to the next phase, we clarify which materials the changes affect, so strategy, design and implementation stay connected.
Deliverables to Discuss
A service touchpoint map, handover checklist, notice templates and an update process.
Specific quantities, content depth, production scope and timing are determined by project materials and usage conditions. At delivery, we also record file versions, usage instructions and ongoing maintenance responsibilities.

When you get in touch about a project, it helps to share your business context, existing materials, primary use scenarios and the problems you want to solve. We'll use this to discuss scope and how we might work together.
