User Testing & Product Design

At LDS Corporation, a $7 Billion global enterprise, I led the design of a unified Order Capture Portal (OCP) to replace a deeply fragmented legacy system. This initiative significantly boosted call center agent efficiency by eliminating page reloads and streamlining workflows, directly impacting over $2 Million in annual sales processed through this channel.

Understanding the Agent Experience

To address LDS Corporation's fragmented legacy system, which lacked a centralized design system, causing inconsistent UI patterns and 30% of user errors, I led a comprehensive UX/UI research initiative. Call center agents faced significant inefficiencies including:

- 30% idle time per 10-minute call due to slow software
- Disjointed workflows across multiple systems
- Frequent lost progress from page reloads
- Outdated interface patterns that developers rebuilt redundantly

Through agent shadowing and gathering 150+ requirements, we identified these pain points while uncovering systemic design debt.

Crafting the Unified Workflow

Translating our research insights into tangible solutions, we began ideating and crafting low-fidelity wireframes for the core workflows of the new Order Capture Portal. Our primary focus was on designing a unified, intuitive, and efficient experience that directly addressed agent pain points like multi-system navigation, slow search, and tedious data entry, ultimately streamlining their day-to-day operations.

These initial wireframes represent foundational solutions developed directly from our agent research. Key improvements include a unified search interface to eliminate multi-system navigation, and streamlined data entry forms designed to reduce manual input and errors. Each iteration focused on simplifying complex workflows, laying the groundwork for a more intuitive and efficient Order Capture Portal."

Fluid & Efficient Interface

Building on insights from our research into legacy system inefficiencies, the design iteration phase transformed the outdated interface into a modern, highly efficient platform. This iterative approach refined user flows and enhanced usability, directly addressing identified pain points. The resulting intuitive and dynamic high-fidelity interface consolidates complex agent workflows, streamlining navigation, search, and order processing for both new and advanced users. Below, observe the visual evolution of key screens, from the existing interface to wireframe concepts and final designs.

Design Iteration

Following our in-depth research into the legacy system's inefficiencies and user pain points, the design iteration phase became crucial for translating insights into tangible solutions. This section visually illustrates the evolution of key screens, beginning with the existing interface, progressing through various wireframe concepts, and culminating in the final high-fidelity designs. This iterative approach allowed us to methodically refine user flows, enhance usability, and ensure the new system directly addressed the identified obstacles.

UI Component Library

This project expanded our design system and matured our Design Operations. I developed 127 UI components, adapting them from web and marketing for a robust internal desktop application interface. This involved an extensive approval process, collaborating closely with Design Operations to ensure consistency and accelerate development for the internal app.

Laying the Foundation for Future Success

Building on the refined wireframes, our visual design focused on transforming the outdated interface into a modern, highly efficient platform tailored for power users. We developed a comprehensive design system, including 127 distinct components and 24 full detailed flows comprising roughly 200 individual screens/frames, to ensure consistency, scalability, and ease of implementation across the entire Order Capture Portal.

The redesigned OCP successfully addressed the critical inefficiencies of LDS Corporation's legacy system. By unifying disparate workflows and optimizing the agent experience, we delivered a modern, intuitive platform built for long-term operational excellence. Following rigorous validation, the comprehensive design and system documentation were successfully handed off to LDS Corporation's in-house team for continued development and maintenance.
