Full time work during Design Sprint week.

Content scheduling

During the Design Sprint week it will be provided an application solution to the customer’s digital application problem of a service. Before creating a prototype the best possible customer understanding will be gained from the selected customer group. First you will create iteratively a concept of the application solution, find out what are the customer needs and what are the main problems in the use and usability of the service.

The prototype will be created and tested on a fast schedule by taking into account the information and the observations collected from the customer group. The customer group’s real need for the service and the problems in the use of the application will define the direction of the service development. The result will be a tested proposal as a prototype for an application solution of the digital service business concept and a definition of the proposed concept.The marketing communication of the application solution to the customer group will also be defined.
