Design Thinking / Data Thinking

Define a problem, and imagine its solution with Design Thinking

 

Thinking and imagining with three objectives: desirability, feasibility and viability & two focuses: user experience and data.

We see Design Thinking at JEMS as an essential element to boost your innovation and involve your teams.

Indeed, Design Thinking is often presented as the innovator’s magic toolbox. With it, everything is possible. But as David Kelley, founder of IDEAO, says in his video, Design Thinking is above all a state of mind. Above all, it will be applied in all fields with empathy, creativity, co-creation, iteration and prototyping as basic principles.

 

Design Thinking answers the question “what?”, while UX Design solves the “how?”.

Design thinking existed before UX Design and is more flexible in its approach. First, by simplifying the global analysis phase of the entire design process by focusing on the statement of a precise problem. Then, by focusing on the proposal of solutions (ideation) with deliverables that can be tested quickly (pretotypes and prototypes).

This is why at JEMS we use it in the first phase of a data and digital project, because it allows us to explore a problem and to arrive at a clear and shared vision. Moreover, we often combine it with the Service Design offer, especially when it comes to working on the overall customer journey.

From Design Thinking to Data Thinking

Long-term performance innovations are inseparable from the use of a scalable, reliable, available and secure data patrimony.

That’s why JEMS, as a data industrialist, offers you a multitude of solutions to reveal your data patrimony. But what about the couple Business and data? This seems less obvious.
Indeed, if everyone has an opinion on data, few organizations manage to link their data patrimony with the rapid design of new services and uses. Thus, we are convinced that a data centric vision is essential at all levels of the company. Therefore, to acculturate project teams, we offer Data Thinking workshops in order to bring out the real contribution of your data in your business vision.

The Data Thinking method is based on user centric principles, but adds at each step the consideration of the data asset on the three axes: create, manage, operate.
And above all, the participation of data specialists (data scientists, data analysts, data storytellers) will improve the data culture in your company. Similarly, data literacy is the key to improving the collaboration of multidisciplinary teams that understand, use, improve and secure data.
