Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How long does a typical service design project take? A: Project duration varies depending on complexity and scope, ranging from 4 weeks for focused optimizations to 12+ weeks for comprehensive end-to-end service transformations. We'll provide a detailed timeline after our initial discovery phase.

Q: Do you work with specific industries? A: While our principles are universally applicable, we have extensive experience across various sectors including SaaS, healthcare, retail, finance, and logistics.

Q: What is the difference between Service Design and UX Design? A: UX Design typically focuses on the user experience of a single product (e.g., a website or app). Service Design takes a broader view, encompassing the entire end-to-end customer journey across all touchpoints (digital and physical) and considering the underlying operational processes, technology, and people involved in delivering the service.

Q: How involved will my team need to be? A: Service design is a collaborative process. Your team's insights and participation, especially in workshops and interviews, are crucial for success. We strive to integrate seamlessly with your existing workflows.
