Is Product Design really important?
Digital solutions exist for virtually everything these days - apps are available for online purchases, booking appointments with doctors and beauty salon professionals, ordering food delivery services and reminding users to water plants or plan your budget or day, to name just a few examples. No matter your need, chances are there's probably at least some solution out there to meet it; we often try many solutions out to find what best meets our needs; eventually choosing one over all others as our preferred one (we tend to gravitate towards one over all others); why do some web or mobile apps stand out amongst all these other solutions? A good digital solution begins with clear and unambiguous requirements set forth for software design from its user.
Waterfall, Agile and RAD are three approaches to managing IT projects that you should carefully consider when undertaking any custom project. I have found that for small custom designs I find that using both Waterfall and Agile for product design works the best.
At this stage of product design - my favorite! - we present all requirements and functionality specifications of a future SUD before moving forward with its development. Once this stage is completed, all aspects are known in advance: what we will deliver when and how; technologies to be employed, design aesthetic and functionality are established so we can move swiftly towards development without unnecessary delays or unnecessary anxiety for everyone involved.
If you are still undecided whether to include a design phase for your product, here is a quick rundown on why the answer should be in the affirmative.
- Product Development can assist your company in exploring all of your product requirements in depth, and providing superior solutions over those offered by competitors.
- Project Definition (PD) can assist developers by anticipating and mitigating potential issues that might surface later during development. Dedicating less time up-front to PD will make your development phase quicker, safer and more cost-efficient.
- Scope creep often results in budget overruns; with clients, Project Director can assist them in preventing scope creep to keep budgets on target and be seen as a win-win solution for all involved.
- PD delivers results as expected when it comes to functionality and appearance, so you will know exactly what will come to fruition for your client at the end.
- Product Development Deliverables provide product owners with an opportunity to receive initial feedback about web or mobile app's functionality and design prior to beginning any development activities.
