Role

  • Principal UX & UI Designer
  • Participate UI planning meeting, and create wireframe, flow, Prototype, style guide, final assets and Deliver Specs.

Challenge and Discovery

  • Municipal Financial Advisors, Bankers, and Issuers are often not on site or in an office, but are still interested in viewing a sale in real time.
  • Currently, changes to deals are communicated via phone calls, text messages, and emails, leading to a disconnect and potentially outdated information
  • Ipreo has a good desktop solution in place, but customer perception is beginning to indicate that Ipreo is slow to innovate and implement new solutions, which may risk loss of market share to competitors.​
  • A mobile app that provides real time deal status and alerts to Issuers, Financial Advisors, Bankers, and Underwriters will significantly improve those users’ ability to stay up to date on the status of a deal while out of the office and help prevent under-informed decisions and reputational damage. In addition, Ipreo will tout an innovative and powerful new solution that differentiates it in the market and provides value that Underwriters and Financial Advisors can sell up to Issuers.​
  • Improve brand status by providing an innovative new software solution​
  • Differentiation from competitors in the Municipal market​
  • Increased sales through Financial Advisors and Underwriters selling Ipreo up to Issuers


Persona

  • Team use A Persona data very heavily. We have persona library. We spend an enough time to review all possible Persona files and chose them and modify them. Any small change or add features, we put a persona in the center and questioning how she/he will response over any change or new adding.






Flow and Wireframe

  • card sorting : Card sorting is a method used to help design and assess the information architecture of your product. It’s a great way for users to categorize your products components in a way that makes sense to them. Four users went through this process and helped create a more enjoyable user flow.
  • Wire-frames : Wire-framing is a great technique that allows you to iterate quickly with little cost to time or energy. Based on the trials above I came up with a low fidelity mock-up which improves the dashboards structure and functionality.




Prototype

  • Use proto.Io was best way to show develop how this web is interacting with user and how the looks like.
  • We used Ptoto.IO for final visual delivery tool too.



Hall way test and Iterate

  • We scheduled hall way test very often from outside team. Sometimes observe how they discover certain way. Sometimes give option to choose.
  • We implement new discovery and did test again
