Mobile Purchasing
This project’s objective was to redesign and significantly extend the functional capabilities of a mobile purchasing application. New functions included alerts, ratings, and vendor review features; and unique multi-team messaging capabilities for simply and rapidly negotiating transactions.
Platform: iOS mobile app
My Role
Lead UX Designer
2015
I modeled the users' workflows and redefined the Information Architecture to incorporate the new features and capabilities using a scenario-based approach. Scenarios were used to uncover the needs related to the dynamics of a fluid negotiation dialog.
Detailed screen designs evolved over several iterations with feedback from a small group of users representing different roles in negotiations.
​
Icons specific to the needs of the negotiation messaging dialog were created in collaboration with a visual designer.

The app includes a new multi-team messaging function for negotiating and communication about purchasing deals among multiple organizations each with teams assigned to one or more deals.
