Core

What is the rough process of service design (the detail)

Service design requires:

Understanding of the customer

Looking across an entire customer journey

Identifying all the problems

Create hypotheses based off of those problems

Prioritising those solutions based off of a set of criteria (defined by the company)

Testing the hypothesised solutions

A practical application of service design

Gifting

Gifting has never had a propositional owner in its totality

It’s never been thought of strategically

We have lots of areas doing ‘gifting’

Shaping the problem space - 2 day workshop

Vibe of the workshop

Get all the gifting SMEs in the room, leader, manager, doer mix

Looking across an entire customer journey

Identified all the problem statements

Create hypotheses based off of the journeys

Prioritising those problem statements based off of a set of criteria

Outputs

Vision statement

High level customer journey map

3 low level customer journey maps

62 Hypothesis cards

25 problem spaces prioritised

Understand the customer

Set the vision

Look across an entire service - high level

Look across an element of the service - low level

Create hypothesis and combine them into problem statements

62 hypothesisbecame

25 problem statements

Prioritise those problem statements

Key output from workshop

Can’t show you all the problem spaces

I might as well use this space to say we validated these problem statements with

customers

Then politics happened

So I took my problem statements and went to another team

The bosses of that team was in the 2 day gifting workshop

That teams scope ‘Sort out gifting’

Not not much change for me

Ideation of gift ready - 6 up sketching

6 up sketching Survey & chatBeing gift ready / ‘giftable’

We went to customers to find out our next move

6 up sketching Survey & chat Price point Being gift ready / ‘giftable’

What price points do the customers want to see

Being gift ready / ‘giftable’ 6 up sketching Survey & chat Price point Decision made

Rolling out to some stores then more

I wanted to go into different stores with different price points to ‘test in live’. The product owner said no

chance.
