What are Product Design Workshops?

These are a series of meetings during which we will design your application together. Our experts will create documentation with you in descriptive (User Stories) and graphical (UX/UI mockups) forms. Product Design Workshops are a crucial step in building a digital product that cannot be overlooked. Just as a construction team cannot build a house without an architectural plan, a development team cannot build an application without documentation.

To ensure your app not only looks great but is also functional and optimal for programming, it’s worth going through this process with a team that has designed and built hundreds of digital products. Experience plays a key role here, and what may seem like a cost-saving measure at this stage can become extremely expensive during development.

What exactly happens during Product Design Workshops?

  • We will conduct an in-depth analysis of your app idea, focusing on key functional and business requirements.
  • We will discuss existing market solutions and help you discover new ways to enhance your product’s competitiveness.
  • We will design UX/UI mockups of your application so you can see what it will look like in the future.
  • We will create solid documentation that will significantly facilitate the programming work in the next stage.

  • Pre-workshop analysis

    Our team reviews the provided materials and prepares a list of questions regarding your application. At this stage, we prepare for the workshops and preliminarily outline User Stories.

  • Kick-off meeting

    The first workshop meeting aims to discuss the necessary app functions and prioritize them for a specific user type. At this stage, we create the Information Architecture, verify User Stories, and define the project’s technical requirements.

  • Working on Information Architecture and User Stories

    Our team creates an Information Architecture diagram, mapping the app with descriptions of possible functions. During the meeting scheduled at this stage, we present our work results and gather your suggestions.

  • Designing UX/UI Mockups with Component Library

    Based on the developed documentation, we design the app screens in the form of high-fidelity (UX/UI) mockups. In short, we design how the application will look in the future. Graphic mockups are prepared in Figma.

  • Summary meeting and documentation handover

    We ensure that the mockups and documentation meet the project’s assumptions. We hand over all the necessary elements, along with an estimate of the app’s time and cost.

What will you gain from Product Design Workshops?

User Stories Documentation

A detailed list of the app's functions and features from the user's perspective. This ensures the development team can implement the project according to your requirements.

Architecture Diagram

A detailed map of the app's features in a visual form, showing all possible user actions.

UX/UI Mockup

A graphic design in the form of UX/UI mockups, reflecting what the application will look like in the future.

Component Library

A collection of user interface elements that ensures a consistent look and optimizes development work.

Where do the workshops take place?

Usually, we conduct them online for your convenience. However, if you prefer to meet in person, we can hold the workshops at your office or at our Rzeszów office, where we have a dedicated conference room.

How long does the app design process take?

The length of the Product Design process depends on the size of the planned application. The more functions or user types, the more time is needed for meetings and design work. On average, the entire process takes one to two months. The first workshop meeting is usually the longest and can last a few hours with necessary breaks.

Who participates in the Product Design Workshops?

We invite you and the designated members of your team who are involved in the project, such as IT, marketing, or sales departments. Their valuable insights will contribute to the success of your application. From our side, the meetings involve a UX/UI designer, business analyst, project manager, and programmers of relevant technologies. The presence of technical specialists allows us to immediately verify the feasibility of specific app functions and suggest alternative solutions.

Let us understand your product entirely

Digital product design workshops should produce a concrete outcome. This identifies the central assumptions about the software and the benefits it should bring to users.

This is why we often use a workshop technique called event storming. This involves each participant trying to take on the application’s end-user role. In this way, we uncover different approaches and can better tailor functionalities.

What can you do after the workshop?

Once we understand your application idea, we can move on to the next stage. You can choose what we will tackle first.

Design a positive experience

In the beginning, it’s crucial to know what your final product will look like. We can design a draft layout of the application, allowing users to navigate efficiently.

Create a user-friendly interface

We will come up with UI mockups that will make the application most accessible.

Build a stable structure

A stunning appearance is not everything. It’s what’s inside that counts. Regardless of the type of software, we will develop a secure and stable code for it.

AR Solutions

The modern design of a web application panel, thanks to which users can easily use all the functions of the AR Solutions system.

Our task was to design the UX and UI of an advanced web panel, containing four complementary modules; for the field worker, specialist, manager and administrator. The customer wanted the panel to be user-friendly and highly intuitive, and its usage effective. In addition, our goal was to design and develop an AR Solutions website that would provide the company with a high level of conversion from user visits.

What is the purpose of product design workshops?

The main point is: if we discuss the idea satisfactorily, we will create the software well. The workshops are aimed to understand the product and the business goals it should fulfill.

Technical design workshops are also a prelude to a valuable partnership. By discussing the critical issues at the outset, we can better estimate the project (costs, duration, etc.) and plan the workflow, which translates into higher-quality code.

What do we focus on during the workshops?

Product design workshops help to better understand two types of needs. We must understand both the needs of your company and of the potential users of the application we will create for you.

During the creative session, we design the customer journey and consider the possible functionalities of the application. We discuss what the software should look like and what benefits it should offer.

What techniques do we use at the meeting?

The main formula of the meeting is a vibrant discussion and brainstorming. This is why we would like to meet you live. We can meet in our office, but online workshops are just as effective.

First, we need you to outline the direction. Once we know the main idea, we break it down. We often use the event storming method, which means we look at different functionalities from the end user’s perspective.

What is discussed at the product designworkshops... UX or backend?

We look at software holistically. We use various technologies in our day-to-day work, creating great-looking and stable applications. A good project must combine these two aspects.

What we focus on more during the workshops is driven by the needs of our clients. Some of them need to visualize their concept, so we run UX design workshops. But others want to develop an existing solution and commission us to provide IT transformation consulting.

What are the key outcomes of workshops?

There are two types of outcomes: material and immaterial. The material ones are the result of our work after the design workshops. You will receive from us UX sketches, user stories (description of functionality from the user’s perspective) and the complete information you need to estimate the project.

The immaterial benefits, on the other hand, come from a good understanding of the product and the selection of practical solutions. After the workshops, it’s easier for us to proceed, so you can expect lower costs and higher-quality code.

What information for estimation will I receive?

For a software development company, every job is different. Therefore, the better we get to know your product at the beginning, the better we can quantify the amount of work needed to create the functionalities. This will enable you to calculate costs more precisely and define the expected duration of each task. The closer you bring us to your project, the better data you will receive from us.

Is it possible to organize remote workshops?

Online meetings are possible, and we organize them for foreign companies. However, when possible, we prefer to meet face-to-face. This helps to communicate better and have more interaction during the design workshops. Our office is located in Rzeszow, Poland.

How to prepare for design workshops?

Everything we need to know is probably in your head. We’d like you to tell us about your idea, so a list of the goals you want to achieve would be useful. When you book a date for the product design workshops, we’ll get back to you, and after an initial review, we’ll outline what information will help us most.

How product design workshops can help with MVP development?

Creating and launching a new product often involves a considerable investment. This is why digital companies use the concept of an MVP – Minimum Viable Product. It refers to a product ready for sale but with areas that will need improvement in the future. This solution reduces the cost of bringing a product to market and allows adjusting it to users’ needs.

However, before creating an MVP, getting the support of a digital consulting agency could be a great idea. With our help, during the design phase workshops, you can explore more possibilities before taking action. A well-conducted interview will allow us to suggest solutions and functionalities at the development stage that will create an even better MVP and, ultimately, a final product.
