Mid-project services

Icebreaking

Stuck on a challenging interface design problem... burnout limiting creativity... unable to reach an effective compromise? We can come up to speed quickly, bring a fresh and experienced perspective, and arrive at a solution that makes sense.

Sanity check

In the middle of a project, it's often useful to get an outside perspective on UI to make sure the interface isn't drifting off track. Concepts that were clear and understandable in the design phase may have become distorted or overextended, but the team is too familiar with them to realize the problem. We can review a project in progress and offer schedule-sensitive suggestions for "course corrections" that will avoid major problems down the line.

Agile screen review

If you're using the Agile development methodology, you're constantly delivering new functions to users for their evaluation and feedback. During an important sprint, we can quickly review screen structure, layout, and content, and offer recommendations for changes that will keep your users happy.

Agile usability testing

User feedback is critical to the success of an Agile-based project, but sometimes users and developers aren't speaking the same language. Instead of depending on voluntary feedback to find out how you're doing, let us observe and interview users after you deliver your latest functionality to see what's working and what isn't. Test evidence can help make sure you're addressing the right issues in the sprints to come.
