Streamlining a 7-Phase Application Process

Client: Dept of Planning, Lands & Heritage


Our Mechanical Rock design team was engaged to support a Government initiative for the replacement of the Department of Planning, Lands & Heritage's FASTPlan system. Engaging with key stakeholders, subject matter experts, and undertaking user research and discovery to understand both user goals and needs, our designers created seven user journey maps to illustrate how the the new system would be streamlined to work alongside the 7-phase application process. Working closely with the project team over a 3 month period, our designers translated user, business and technical requirements into a series of wireframe concepts, UI mock-ups and prototypes to inform how the new end solution will be accessible, intuitive, and a delightful user experience
