To build any strong, efficient, and productive process, a company must build a strong team of people to operate that process—and, design is no different. Who do you need on your product design team to make it work? We evaluate your team in relation to your company, and identify roles that fit where you are, and where you want to go.

This is where operational excellence can really take shape and begin to benefit the company’s bottom line and ability to create. We care about efficiency, but we also care just as much about effectiveness. If we want effective design teams, we have to provide them with a working model which allows them to deliver valuable products that make each deployment count.
