Making your business operationally ready

Focussing on the MVOP (Minimum Viable Operational Product) and SVP (Scalable Viable Product) to make your business operationally ready for day-1 (and beyond).

We work with you to identify areas in business processes that require scalability, in both manual and automated processes.

Making sense of issues and problem solving, quickly

Sometimes it's difficult for companies to quickly and effectively make sense of big problems, generate different design ideas and then gather feedback to validate a direction.

Whether it's validating a proposition or design direction, looking for different ideas to improve an existing solution or re-energising an existing delivery team, we can help you.

What's involved during a 5-day sprint

A design sprint is typically between 4-5 days, depending upon how complicated the problem is.

Day 1: mapping the problem and understanding the issue, Day 2: generating new ideas and thinking, Day 3: Critiquing and deciding which idea to mock-up, Day 4: Prototype the agreed idea to be tested, Day 5: Gather feedback with real users.

Who's involved and effort required

No-one understands your big problems more than the people in your business, which is why a design sprint team (typically between 4-6) is mainly made up of your product owners, designers, senior stakeholders, customer service experts and developers. Design sprints are typically held at your premises too.

A crucial member of the team is the facilitator, who ensures the design sprint is structured to successfully achieve the required goal. Answer Digital typically embed 1-2 facilitators within each sprint, who are also highly experienced senior Experience Designers to structure problems, provide additional creativity, rapidly build prototypes and conduct reliable evaluative research.

Full-Stack Development

We have a passion for technology and software development, aligned to best practices that deliver bespoke solutions for our demanding customers. We help clients by embedding our highly-skilled C++ and Java based developers into their existing projects and programmes.
