“Imagine yourself as a client looking to have your mobile application developed. After searching for a while, you agree contractual terms with one esteemed software development company. Given the fact that you already have a good idea of what your app should look like and how it would work, you simply ignore the project discovery workshop due to tight deadlines, time and money constraints. So you finally decide to handover the specifications document to the technical team and set a specific deadline for the delivery and product launch.

UI/UX Designing
The UI/UX design team may be the biggest thinkers and though we have the best talents delivering outstanding designs week-in, week-out; we believe that clients are equally important part of Discovery sessions to make an end product a success. Key details are very important for thinking and visualisation process for design team! If you don’t want key details to get lost in translation, you need to plan the process out right. It is to ensure that all the features you expect to be developed are covered in the product’s roadmap/ user journeys. This is achieved when there is a smooth transition of information between design team and other project stakeholders.
