01 — When a rebuild is necessary

Some problemscan't be patched.

We never recommend rebuilding without a proper Diagnosis. But there are situations where structural limitations make a rebuild the only responsible path.

I01

Accessibility gaps

Your site fails WCAG 2.1 AA — creating legal risk and excluding the people you exist to serve.

II02

Structural SEO limitations

Your platform makes it technically impossible to implement proper SEO foundations.

III03

Outdated infrastructure

Aging platforms, unmaintained plugins, and security gaps that no amount of patching will fix.

IV04

Governance risk

No clear ownership, poor documentation, and processes that depend entirely on one person.

03 — Our process

A four-stagerebuild approach.

01Step 01

Discovery & Diagnosis

Every rebuild begins with a Digital Capacity Diagnosis — understanding your current infrastructure, compliance gaps, and operational needs before we touch anything.

02Step 02

Architecture & Accessibility Design

We design the information architecture, accessibility framework, and technical stack before writing a line of code.

03Step 03

Build & Optimisation

We build to specification with accessibility, performance, and sustainability baked in from the start — not bolted on at the end.

04Step 04

Ongoing Stewardship

Post-launch, we offer ongoing Stewardship — security monitoring, compliance tracking, and strategic guidance so the investment holds its value.

04 — Common questions

FAQ.

How long does a website rebuild take?

A typical rebuild takes 8–16 weeks from Diagnosis to launch, depending on site complexity, content volume, and stakeholder review processes. We'll scope this clearly after the initial Diagnosis.

Do you guarantee WCAG 2.1 AA compliance?

Yes. Every site we build meets WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards. We provide documentation confirming compliance as part of the handover package.

Are you on the NSW SCM2701 panel?

Yes — Marzipan is prequalified under the NSW Government SCM2701 Digital Experience Management scheme, streamlining procurement for government-adjacent organisations.

Do we have to do the Diagnosis before a rebuild?

We strongly recommend it. It prevents expensive mistakes and ensures the rebuild addresses your actual problems rather than assumed ones. The Diagnosis fee is credited in full toward your rebuild.

What happens after launch?

We offer the Stewardship Program for ongoing accountability — security monitoring, accessibility compliance tracking, performance optimisation, and strategic guidance.
