Note, the proof of concept part can probably be done concurrently with the ux investigation and design
Goals
- Optimize the user experience across all browsers and mobile devices.
- Design an interface intuitive enough such that no formal training is required to use the Grouper UI for common tasks.
- Meet or exceed WCAG 2.0 AA requirements for accessibility.
Measurable Objectives

- Users rate their experience with Grouper at five or higher on a seven point scale.
- A user using assistive technology is able to perform any and all tasks.
Phases/Process
- Initial research
- Identify pool of existing users
- Test current interface against new/green users?
- Identify pain points with current UI
- Identify most common tasks and pain points
- Identify core functions
- Gather requirements (concurrent with Initial Research)
- Identify existing functionality to be preserved
- Identify new features to be incorporated
- Low-fidelity wireframes - desktop and mobile
- Initial sketching and low-fi electronic wireframe development
- Test common tasks against wireframes
- Rinse and repeat
- High fidelity wireframes - desktop and mobile
- Develop richer wireframes
- Test common tasks against wireframes
- Report results
- User eXperience investigation / gather requirements (pain points with current UI, workflows, etc)
- Design the UI screens, workflows, etc
