Pre-development digital product design
Our tried and tested design framework, Precode Design Methodology or PDM for short, has been developed over 20+ of working delivering software products.
By having clearly defined project stages, we can reduce time and cost of software projects, as well as giving stake holders a clear idea of what will be delivered.
We don’t code but developers love us and stakeholders trust us.
1. Discover
Before we start making decisions about user experience and creative direction, we do our homework to make sure we’re not making any incorrect assumptions. Research forms a strong project foundation.
2. UX Design
Using wireframes and flow charts, we define the user flow through your app and the overall location of items, features, and information. This is the skeleton of your app – the structure.
3. Prototyping
An important step in designing any product is making sure it feels right. Through interactive prototypes, we can test specific actions and make sure they behave as a user would expect.
4. User Testing
Designers have great ideas, all the time. There’s a fine line between modern and obscure. Testing allows us to see how actual users interact with our designs, to make sure they work in the real world.
5. Ui Design
At this point in the process, we define a creative direction for your product – styles, colours, and general feel based on key pieces. We’ll consistently apply that approved direction across the entire project.
6. Interaction Design
Designing static layouts is only part of the story. We also describe what happens between interface states, and define specific micro-interactions – how certain UI elements react to user interaction.
7. Handover
We gather everything up and deliver our final designs in a developer friendly tool. Developers can see access all style sheets, padding, sizing, fonts, colours simply and easily. Less time thinking about designs more time coding them. Developers love us, stakeholders will love you.
8. Production Support
We often work with other development teams, and our designers are experts at communicating and assisting in development questions. We’ll help your team through any snags.
