What we do

Week 1; The sprint
On the first week, we will have a set of workshop activities following the sprint-methodology. Since we want to move fast, the number of participants is limited to maximum 8 people. The participants should ideally represent different areas of your business, and it’s crucial that the group has the mandate to make decisions related to the project. We will both facilitate the sessions and co-create in the activities. The agenda of the week roughly looks as following:

Day 1 (Monday): Goals and challenge mapping
Day 2 (Tuesday): Sketches and ideation
Day 3 (Wednesday): Decide what’s best
Day 4 (Thursday): Build a prototype
Day 5 (Friday): Test with users
Week 2; Concept refinement & evaluation
After the sprint, there will be one/several rough concept based on the winning ideas and feedback from user tests. The design team at MERPHI will go through the user feedback and refine the concepts to the point where they can be implemented and introduced to your users. Based on the results of the sprint activities, our team will also create a report explaining the different solutions in detail. Finally, we will present the concepts to relevant stakeholders and deliver the report and relevant design-files.

What you get

You will receive the refined concepts visualized in a suitable medium (Render/Figma-file) and a report including all the findings from the process. The report will also outline the pros and cons of different solutions to help you make an informed final decision about which concept or strategy to move forward with.
