CORGI Homeplan

Research, evaluation and service mapping

When I joined OVO in 2017, I first worked in the CORGI HomePlan team and was mostly doing research on their engineer platform as part of the discovery phase of a new product proposition.

Actions

One of the actions we took was to redesign the engineer job reporting system to make it more user-friendly and mobile first responsive, so engineers can submit their job sheets and costs more quickly and easily. This was the most pressing issue based on their feedback.

I used Sketch and Invision for the design and prototyping, then ran a rapid round of usability testing with engineers to make sure weโ€™re making a positive impact.
