The kinds of projects we take on
Corporate sites, online stores, gated portals and the integration work behind them. Here is how we describe that work, so you can judge whether your project resembles it.
How to read this page
We do not publish client names or results we cannot verify
This page describes the corporate and ecommerce work Oliveasia.com Pte Ltd does, in enough detail that you can judge whether your project resembles it. What follows is the shape of the work: project types, the problems they solve, and the decisions that tend to come up. No anonymous logo wall, no borrowed numbers.
Read the project type closest to yours first. Each one lists what actually gets decided during the build — category structure, access rules, redirect maps, failure cases — because that is where a project succeeds or stalls.
Before you ask us for references
- We can talk through comparable project types and the decisions involved.
- We will say plainly when your project is unfamiliar ground for us.
- Scope, platform and access model are agreed before design starts.
Project types
Seven shapes of work, and what each one decides
Most builds land in one of these. They are listed in the order clients usually raise them, not by size or importance.

Corporate sites
Credible to a procurement officer and a prospective client at once
Professional services firms in Singapore often need a site that reads as credible to a procurement officer and a prospective client at the same time. The work involves structuring services clearly, presenting people and credentials without inflation, and making contact routes obvious.
Accessibility planning often enters here, because larger clients ask about WCAG alignment or reference Section 508 in their own checklists. That means semantic markup, keyboard navigation, contrast and alt text handled during design rather than patched afterwards. The output is a site that supports a sales conversation rather than replacing it.

A retailer moving a physical catalogue online
A retailer moving a physical catalogue online faces a specific set of decisions: how to structure categories, how to present variants, what shipping rules apply, and which payment methods customers expect. PayNow is a common local expectation, and card payments through a provider like Stripe cover the rest.
The build work is mostly about the checkout flow and the operational rules behind it. If the catalogue is large or pricing is configurable, that shapes the platform choice early. Where returns, delivery windows and fulfilment instructions live is decided with the store owner, not left to the template.
Platforms and integrations
The complicated work rarely looks dramatic. It looks like a quiet desk at nine at night.
Connecting a store to a fulfilment system, syncing product data across channels, or routing enquiries into a CRM with the right fields takes careful scoping. These projects succeed or fail on the details: what happens when an API call fails, how duplicates are handled, who owns the data.
We plan the failure cases before writing the integration, because that is where the surprises live.
Migrations
The technical move is one part. The risk is content and search visibility.
Platform migrations come up when a business outgrows its first store, or when a corporate site needs to move to a CMS the marketing team can actually use. We inventory pages, decide what carries over, and map redirects so existing rankings are not lost.
Data migration for stores includes products, customers and order history, each with its own constraints. Older order records often need to stay readable without being editable — that is decided in scope, not discovered at launch.
What a migration plan covers
- Page inventory. Every existing URL is listed and marked as carrying over, merging or retiring.
- Redirect map. Old paths point at their closest new equivalent so search visibility is not thrown away.
- Product and customer data. Field by field, including what cannot be transferred cleanly.
- Order history. Kept readable for support and accounting, even when it is read-only in the new store.
Comparing two paths
Redesign or migration — what actually changes
Clients often arrive asking for a redesign when the real problem is elsewhere. This is the comparison we walk through before quoting either.
| Decision point | Redesign and performance pass | Platform migration |
|---|---|---|
| When it fits | The platform is sound; loading, mobile layout, outdated content or a leaky checkout are the problem. | The store has outgrown its first platform, or the marketing team cannot edit the corporate site. |
| Work involved | Audit first, then image handling, caching and edge services such as Cloudflare. | Page inventory, redirect map, and field-by-field transfer of products, customers and orders. |
| Main risk | Fixing the wrong thing: a slow page is often an image problem, not a design problem. | Losing search visibility and order history if the redirect map and data rules are skipped. |
| Content and CMS | Content is reviewed and rewritten where it is dated; the CMS usually stays as it is. | Content is re-modelled for the new CMS so editors can publish without a developer. |
| Checkout and payments | Kept, unless a specific step is losing customers; PayNow and card options stay configured. | Reconfigured on the new platform, including shipping rules and returns handling. |
| Typical effort | Shorter, because most of the site is left alone once the cause is identified. | Longer, because data, permissions and redirects all need their own plan. |
| Our advice | We will tell you when a redesign is not necessary. | Scope the access model and redirects before design, not after. |
What we do not claim
No invented case studies, no testimonials, no numbers we cannot stand behind
We do not publish invented case studies, client testimonials, or performance statistics we cannot substantiate. If you want references, we can discuss the type of work we have done and what is relevant to your situation. We would rather have an honest conversation about fit than present a portfolio designed to impress.
Ask us directly about your project type and we will tell you whether it is familiar ground. If you are comparing suppliers for a corporate website or ecommerce project in Singapore, the most useful thing we can give you is a straight answer on scope.

Judging fit from your side
The clearest signal of fit is whether your project has a defined commercial purpose and a decision-maker available on your side. Corporate sites, stores, portals and integration work all qualify. If you need a minimal site at the lowest price, or a project without an internal owner, we are probably not the right team. A short conversation with concrete details is the fastest way to find out either way.
Useful next step
Bring the project type, roughly how many pages or products are involved, and who signs off. That is enough for a useful first conversation.
Support and maintenanceQuestions we get asked
Before you get in touch
Can I see examples of your work?
We discuss relevant project types and the decisions involved rather than publishing unverifiable case studies. Tell us your project type and we will explain what similar work involves — the platform choices, the access model, the checkout decisions, and where the risks usually sit.
Do you take on small projects?
Yes, when they have a clear purpose and a decision-maker available. A focused corporate site is a normal project for us. What we avoid is open-ended work without an owner on the client side, because that is where scope drifts and deadlines quietly disappear.
Do you work with clients outside Singapore?
Yes. Our base and working hours are Singapore, which helps local clients with payment and shipping norms — PayNow expectations, local delivery windows, and the way customers here expect a checkout to behave. Remote projects run on scheduled check-ins, so progress is visible without a daily call.
Tell us the project type and we will tell you if it is familiar ground
Send a short description of what you are building, or call the studio during working hours. Either way you get a straight answer about fit before any quote appears.
