First, we outlined a research ops strategy
In tandem with the UX Lead, we defined steps to implement new practices (people, processes & tools) at product scale. Our first goal was to bring proof of the impact a research approach, design principles and new methodologies can have for the business.
Then, we did a product wide
explorative & evaluative research
Through user interviews, user testing, surveys and workshops, we studied the needs, pain points and expectations of our clients, shedding light on the journey users go through from first contact to end goal.
And we created a research repository
In order to make the insights actionable for the product team, we built a database following atomic principles. We tagged multiple variables and segmented the data by macro and micro journeys, and wrote user statements, Jobs To Be Done and challenges to address.
