Agile Dream Team
frog brought together a tightly integrated Agile Scrum team comprised of engineers, designers and project managers, as well as 14 partners from Silicon Valley, the Middle East and India. We were able to make the design intent real by adapting our development approach to partner software lifecycles and specific technology standards.
Rapid Prototyping and Iteration
frog defined five experience principles and used them to guide design and development. Rapid prototyping and iteration sessions drove the design of the detailed front-end experience, with user interviews in Riyadh and Jeddah helping to identify areas for refinement.
Reframing Pain Points
frog translated pain points into opportunities based on research that found young Saudis expect sophisticated branded experiences and see a mobile, digital lifestyle as an important extension of their identity. These opportunities were then extended across the complete customer journey.
