DX Data - Assess
Assess.
We begin with a straightforward user-focussed audit against best practice experience design principles and assess current user satisfaction. This phase helps you objectively understand and tune the way your data product or service looks, feels and functions to your end users and customers as you transform for performance, cost optimisation and scale.
In a co-creative process, our experts collaborate and engage with your team to brainstorm, create prototypes and test solutions to address a specific problem or challenge. Depending on your requirements, we can focus either on a broad assessment of a complete product, or on improving a particular use case or pain point.

DX Data - Table - What it means to you
How we work and what it means to you.
How it work & what it means to you.
| How we work. | What it means to you. |
|---|---|
| Research-first approach focussed on observability and proof. | Reduced cost associated with delivery risk by ensuring the product or service exactly meets the needs of the user/customer/citizen, drastically reducing re-work (which is 100 times more costly once development starts). |
| Intuitive, proven design frameworks. | Reduced support and training costs - when products and services are poorly designed, users seek help. |
| Service integration. | Increased productivity/ more volume - better digital services that are joined up for employees and customers drive satisfaction and loyalty. |
| Inclusive design. | Ensure you don’t leave anyone out of the experience due to accessibility or economic constraints. Maximising the applicability of the service and extending your reach leads to increased engagement and profit. |
| Focus on holistic viability. | Mature User Experience (UX) approach seeks to meet both internal and external audiences’ expectations by deliberately designing their experience to create value. We define value as a product or service that’s usable, feasible and viable. Approaching viability with its more holistic meaning allows you to target social and environmental benefit in addition to revenue and profit. |
