Process
Discovery
The project utilized various Agile methodologies and kicked off with research, analysis, and reporting. Data and requirements were reviewed from various departments including Sales, Finance, and Customer Service.
The team reviewed Google Analytics reports, technical documentation, known issues, user feedback, proposed optimizations, and the product backlog. Customer surveys were collected and various usability tests were performed both in-person and online.
A project plan including high-level requirements, scope, and timeline was presented to the executive and advisory groups.

Design
With project approval and alignment obtained, the team focused on creating low and mid-fidelity artifacts including whiteboard flows, wireframes and mockups.
A click-through InVision prototype was built and presented to user focus groups, internal stakeholders, and executive leadership for review and feedback.
After a few rounds of iteration and review, high-fidelity visual designs, content, and translation we're prepared.

Prototype
Development was split into two phases to focus on the back-end and then front-end deliverables of the project. Scrum ceremonies, showcases, reviews, focus groups, and technical meetings were performed to ensure a user-centered approach to the process.
A prototype was developed, user tested, iterated upon, and reviewed by quality assurance in preparation for final approval and launch.
