Design Sprint

There are different ways to improve the customer experience and the product. However, many of them involve a lot of time and continuous improvement. Design Sprint is an alternative approach where hypotheses and solutions are tested in a short time. The process aims to help teams clearly define goals, validate assumptions, and decide on a product roadmap before starting development. Design Sprint is considered a short and intensive time interval during which the team works to create ideas and put them into practice as quickly as possible to get feedback quickly and start improving.

Why do you need a Design Sprint?

A Design Sprint helps reduce the standard number of steps of new product development to get maximum value in a short period. Instead of waiting to launch a minimal product to understand if an idea is any good, you’ll get precise data from a realistic prototype.

What you will get using the Design Sprint service:
  • Understanding key users better
  • Clear vision of final deliverables
  • Creative thinking and experimenting to explore a wider variety of ideas
  • Avoiding the need to compose detailed specifications
  • Reducing the cost of final deliverables failure during user testing
  • Enjoying better ownership due to active collaboration
  • Witnessing real users validating ideas directly
When you need a Design Sprint service:
  • When previous innovations haven’t been adopted as expected
  • When you need to get services to market quickly
  • When you’re trying to re-establish a branded relationship in the context of digital-first servicing
  • When your customer’s multichannel experience is incoherent and complex
  • When you can commit key team members to work in an intense way
