If you have embarked on the path of innovation, it is likely that you are looking to implement or develop solutions that allow you to scale and complete your business processes.
Today I share some tips that can support the success of your project.
Sustainable architecture:
In the design or implementation of applications, we have to consider what type of infrastructure we are going to incorporate, I invite you to look for several proposals that allow you to analyze maintenance costs, licensing and transaction volume.
The first design is not always the right one, ask your suppliers for recommendations or seek advice from a solutions architect.
Integration
The integration of your solution is one of the most critical and sensitive points of a project, because you must consider what information will be transmitted to feed your processes.
Some tips:
Identify what information you need to feed your solution (input).
What processes need to feed (output information).
How often do you need your integration to run (hourly, daily, monthly).
Before the tests, focus on preparing a test script and indicators that allow you to guarantee the success of your integration.
Define the administrator, who will be in charge of monitoring the status of your integration and performing or scheduling future maintenance.
user experience
If we want our solution to be successful, we have to consider the experience of our users.
Some tips:
Reduce the number of clicks you must execute to access a functionality or process.
Keep the logic simple.
Adjust the language of the application so that it is aligned with the voice and tone of your company.
Use your company's color palette.
Build an intuitive design that allows users to quickly identify the option to run quickly.
REPORTS
Identify and design in advance what information you want to obtain and monitor from your new process, how you want to view it, whether it is to control adoption, audit, obtain the latest results or measure the loading time of the application.
flexible administration
Having flexible administrative functionalities allow you to continue designing or adjusting your application, it will be a key factor to scale without additional costs for consulting, think about what things you need for your process in the short and medium term.
Some examples:
Security management
Management of translations, messages
Notifications
Creating new fields or filters
Integration monitoring
Users management
Report design
Look and feel
Remember to document all definitions, train your key users and administrators to improve adoption.
Prepare a communications plan and connect your users with the training material.
At the end of the implementation, hold a session to identify the lessons learned, prepare an analysis that allows you to identify your starting point, which functionalities were achieved and which have an opportunity for improvement.
Do not settle for provisional manual processes, process automation will allow you to save operating costs and use your resources in what is really important for your business.
