Pre-Session Inputs
Project Discovery
Collecting and learning from current product usage, data, technology, resource gathering, cross device implementation, content and internal processes.
Detailing Current UX / UI / CX trends, product statistics, competitor trends, value propositions and user needs.
Sign Off Collaboration in production of an agreed signed off project (SOW) Statement of Work, including sprint and production timelines, budget, testing, iteration cycles and go live deployment dates.
Stakeholder Workshops Workshops are conducted at the start of each project. Workshop sessions offer key product owners and project stakeholders the opportunity to collaborate and innovate with our UX team to focus on product ideation architecture design, key feature, user flows and test and validate MVP products on different devices in real time.

Multi Device Prototyping High-level MVP interactive clickable prototypes created for multi device strategy including responsive web, native Android & iOS mobile / wearable apps and enterprise platforms.
(MVP) Minimal Viable Product MVP creation can be created during stakeholder collaboration workshops. MVP can illustrate key features, user flows and user metric goals for validation quickly.
Hypothesis Validation A prototype will help validate product assumptions and features hypothesis. Hypothesis creation can help prove product appeal and provide essential learning’s for product direction.
Research Every project is unique and custom comprising of necessary research components for product storytelling and validation. Research can compromise of persona development, user research, customer development, competitor research, business goal alignment and analytical data fact-finding.
Persona Development Selection and creation of key user demographic personas for review, testing and alignment to product / app features.
Customer Development As part of the research process we can video interview users, test current product features with users, conduct user insight workshops and product focus groups.
Competitor Research Active market competitor analysis, detailing apps, websites, platforms, features, user base, performance, device strategy and product key differentiators.
Data / Analytics / Storytelling Current UX / UI / CX trends, product statistics, competitor trends, value propositions and user needs.

Testing Testing is conducted continuously throughout the project lifecycle, right from the beginning. Usability testing is conducted to analyse user flows, user behaviour, analytical data, prototypes (MVPs), navigation, content copy and colour psychology right through to button size and gesture types per device (smartwatch, smartphone, tablet and desktop). Testing learning’s is paramount in iterating and improving product features, experience and user satisfaction.
