Our Human-Centered Design Approach

Human-centered design is what we do at Slingshot Product Development Group. We solve complex problems to serve real people. When you know your customer and the end-user deeply, your product’s functionality, usability, and sustainability reflect it, informing the entire user experience.

Benefits of  Human-Centered Design

Our design process starts with passionate groups of people, hand-picked to ideate solutions for your business’s complex problems. What distinguishes human-centered design from other problem-solving design methods is a clear focus on deeply understanding the end user, better understanding their needs and developing innovative solutions for them.

 
 

Better  Understand  the User

Before jumping into the engineering, or the technology of the product, we deeply investigate the user experience, ask questions, and take a look at the project through the perspective of real people.

 

Pinpoint the Real Problem

Human-centered design begins with out-of-the-box thinking, creative problem-solving, and getting to the root of complex problems, rather than merely solving for symptoms. This methodology leads to quality products that are thoughtfully produced.

 

Design & Test Before Build 

The ability for rapid prototyping is standard at Slingshot, and allows our designers to test, iterate, collect user feedback, and more quickly go to market.

In addition, Slingshot has offered business advice and has been very helpful in establishing networking relationships.
