    WHAT IS RAPID PROTOTYPING AND
    WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?

    RAPID PROTOTYPING
    • Work quickly through iterations
    of design, navigation, user
    experience, and palette
    • Allows you to bring
    visualization to your ideas
    • Quickly bring validity (or not) to
    process transformation

    WHERE SHOULD YOU START?

  8. @propelics www.propelics.com 8
    DEFINE AN INNOVATION POSTURE
    • Important to identify where to start
    • Each point on this maturity stack has
    benefit – what works for your
    organization?
    • Amount & rate of process change
    • End-user readiness
    • Not every app can be (or should be)
    transformative
    • Understand that there is no “gold
    standard” for enterprise mobility

    DEFINE A MOBILE APP
    ROADMAP

    Identify hotspots through ideation
    and art of the possible sessions

    Align ideas to business drivers,
    organizational readiness, and
    ease of implementation

    Stack rank app candidates by
    overall viability score

    Choose a top app candidate for
    rapid prototyping

    START WITH A DAY IN THE LIFE
    What is it? Basically stalking.
    Follow potential app users (employees, partners,
    etc.) around as they complete their daily tasks.
    A few examples:
    • Accompany drivers on a delivery route
    • Shadow sales people as they visit prospects
    and customers
    • Work in a retail store, stocking, auditing &
    answering customer questions
    • Visit oil fields with lease operators and
    technicians

    • Functionality that maximizes business benefit
    • Fosters innovation
    • Possesses High-Readiness in process, data, and implementation
    • Makes the scenario “real”

    BEGIN WITH THE END IN
    MIND
    • Build prototype in no more than 2
    weeks and distribute to end users
    • Semi-functional prototypes give users
    a feel for actual navigation and
    interaction
    • Gather feedback from key
    constituents, discover gaps and
    adjust before you start development
