Internship at Srijan Technologies
Srijan is Software Company, started in 1999, based in New Delhi. Srijan started as a pure technology company offering high-end technical services to clients around the world, and this skill remains at the core of their offerings even today.
My training at Srijan Technologies Pvt. Ltd., helped me understand the use of a business solution such as a corporate website or a software application in context of the business concerns objectives of the company/organization.
This has given me an insight into approaching a business solution keeping in mind not only the experience of an end-user (which I primarily learnt during my education) but also understand and address the business requirement. This required an understanding of technology tools available and their constraints.
The principles of Information Architecture and Cognitive Psychology came into practical use to ensure better user experience and its integration with design.

Srijan's Web Presence
Srijan is into building bespoke software applications, website design and development, and E-Business solutions for customers in India and abroad. The website they earlier had was poor on design as well as the information structuring and presentation. Srijan was aware of that, but did not know a better way around.
The variety of applications that they had done was quite large. The challenge therefore, was to work with the customer in identifying the key focus areas of the company, restricting the number of highlighted projects by classifying the domain areas, and structuring information to address their need of catering to both offshore and domestic customers.
I was a part of the team that comprised of a Visual Designer (Parameswaran .V), Content Writer (Prasanna Lal Das) and myself as an Information Architect.
