Design & Discovery:Making sure your software fits your process, not the other way around
We delve into daily practice. We speak to teams, follow processes and identify bottlenecks. This gives us a realistic picture of what your software needs to solve and what value it should deliver.
We test assumptions where the work happens. In the workplace, we often discover details that determine a good design. We use these insights to make the design sharp and realistic.
Based on the analysis, we develop a visually clickable prototype. No separate ideas, but a concrete design that shows functionalities, screens and flows. This provides peace of mind and overview before construction starts.
We make a clear plan for the development process. What is the minimum version that provides value? What steps come next? The roadmap brings priorities and expectations into a clear picture, so everyone knows what we're working towards.
Most software projects crash because they start building too quickly. While there is an idea, there is no complete picture of the processes, users and exceptions. This leads to rework, unnecessary costs and solutions that are not in line with reality.
In our Design & Discovery phase, we lay exactly that foundation. We analyse your organization, translate processes into clear flows and create visual designs that provide immediate insight. In this way, we only build what is really necessary later.
Why this phase is indispensable
At Louvels.dev, we believe that strong software starts with understanding. In this phase, we determine together what is really important, prevent surprises during construction and create a design that stakeholders immediately recognize.
This approach ensures that software is not only technically accurate, but also functionally fits your organization. It prevents rework and speeds up turnaround time.
Our way of working together
We work in an iterative process. This means that we collect feedback in the meantime and process new insights immediately. So you don't see a design until the end, but are actively included in every step.
During the Design & Discovery phase, there is regular coordination. We discuss progress, validate ideas and provide guidance where necessary. This creates support among everyone involved.
The Design & Discovery phase ensures that everyone looks in the same direction. By visualizing processes, making the design tangible and substantiating choices, you get clarity and control beforehand. This makes the development process predictable and creates confidence in the end result.
“The Discovery process gave us an immediate overview and focus. We immediately saw what needed to be built - and what wasn't necessary.”
