Description of Project:
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) lacked needed internal expertise to perform essential program duties. As a result, the USDA Office of Communication was unable to meet the demands of its internal customers.
Aquent supported USDA in providing graphic art products, in color or black and white, including several distinctly different types of artwork that conformed to regulation standards for archival retention and conformed to applicable standards for quality assurance. Graphic design products created for USDA were intended for use in multiple media, including print and electronic publications. Graphic art products included foreign language translation. In addition to providing ongoing graphic design support, Aquent also provided web design and maintenance as needed.
Aquent provided talent working in the local market with the needed skillsets to meet the demands of the Office of Communications' internal clients. Projects were completed on time, on or below budget, and meeting or exceeding all client quality standards.
