Enhancing VMM’s data platform with tailored UX and insights
Orange Business supported the VMM in develop the portal within their data platform. The following output was achieved:
- A design for the portal, visually presented using mock-ups
- 3 data portal demonstrations with test environments were made available for the VMM (PowerBI, Tableau Spotfire, Adobe XD) to allow them to measure the benefits they could gain from each solution
- A UX analysis that allowed the VMM to better understand their needs and their target group's needs
Enhanced environmental data access for stakeholders
Orange Business proposed to combine two of their expertise: “Data analysis & Visualisation” and “ Digital experience”, to provide recommendations. As a result, we proposed a new, more user-friendly graphic approach in line with their end-user needs.
