Simplify. Simplify. Simplify
01 OVERVIEW
This case study demonstrates how I streamlined the information displayed on the tool, enabling users to effortlessly locate what they need.
02 ROLE
Iteration Design
After the initial user interviews and the design of the first iteration were completed, I joined the tools register team. My role was to refine the design into its second iteration and ensure a seamless transition through to handover.
03 KEY CHALLENGES
Less is more
Challenge
Stakeholders are accustomed to the current tool's display and have additional requirements. My challenge was to seamlessly incorporate all these elements into the UI, ensuring simplicity and ease of use.
Solution
We followed the MoSCoW model of prioritisation, as illustrated in the diagram below, to determine essential inclusions. The 'won't have' (nice-to-have) items have been documented for future consideration.
04 UI DESIGN
Design System
For this project, we utilized the internal Arup design system, ensuring consistency and coherence across all internal tools.
05 TAKEAWAY
Handover ready
Winning moments
Improved Usability: Initial user testing produced highly positive results.
Importance of a business analyst: The business analyst meticulously maintained thorough documentation, which proved invaluable throughout the entire design process.
Lessons Learned
Stakeholders: learned to interact with stakeholders on a project.
Adaptability: Open to making changes to the designs, even when they are minor as these changes could have been missed.
