Challenge
The maintenance projects were rapid design tasks with short deadlines. Each task was assigned to one UX designer, so these were solo-projects in essence.
Process
The typical process from my perspective looked like this:
- Scoping the project with the sponsor and the stakeholders
- Budgeting, developing a proposal
- Managing the deadline, client correspondence
- Desk research, and a little research (mostly friends of friends, because of the lack of time)
- Wireframing in Axure
- As much usability testing as time allowed
- Presenting the design and iterating on it
- After acceptance, handing the design over to the UI and site build team
- Quality assurance during implementation
Results
I did not have access to conversion or visit numbers, but it was very motivating that my work reached millions of T-Mobile customers, including my friends and family.
