The Architecture and Design phase is the most important phase in the project lifecycle. While more extensive physical creation is done during the Develop phase, it is the comprehensive documenation, specifications, and planning that results from this second phase that plays the greatest role in insuring fluid development and robust results.

During the project's second phase, Nodal PT's dedicated engagement team works to model and design the system's functionality, interface, system architecture, software guidelines, graphical assets, and physical look and feel.

Like the overarching guideline an industrial architect's blueprints, analysis, and oversight provide to a construction project, the Architecture and Design phase of Nodal PT's methodology delivers the fundamental superstructure and vision upon which all later development must rest.
