Chemconnect – keeping meeting details in one place
Chemonics sought to design a mobile application that would give their team a resource for keeping meeting details in one place. This software would have an accessible contact list for the entire organization and organizational statistics at a glance. Since meetings can occur in places without Wi-Fi or a mobile connection, the app data would remain on the device and sync when Wi-Fi or a mobile connection is established.
THE PROJECT
Challenge:
Chemonics, a global development firm, faced a challenge in consolidating and managing meeting details across its organization. With meetings often taking place in areas with limited connectivity, they required a solution that could store data locally on mobile devices and sync seamlessly when connectivity was available.
Solution:
I embarked on a comprehensive design process, beginning with extensive UX research. I conducted interviews and surveys with Chemonics staff to understand their meeting management needs and preferences. This research informed the development of wireframes and prototypes that were iteratively refined based on user feedback.
OUR PROCESS
User-Centric Approach:
Through user interviews and surveys, I identified key pain points and user requirements related to meeting management. I discovered the need for a centralized platform to store meeting details, access contact information, and view organizational statistics.
Information Architecture:
Using the insights gathered from UX research, I created wireframes and prototypes of the mobile application. These prototypes were tested with Chemonics staff to validate the design and functionality. Iterative adjustments were made based on user feedback to ensure an intuitive and user-friendly experience.
Visual Design:
With a focus on simplicity and clarity, I crafted a visually appealing interface that prioritized ease of use. The design incorporated Chemonics’ branding elements while maintaining a clean and modern aesthetic.
