Reimagining a Corporate Workstations Booking Platform Through User-Centered Design Principles and Prototyping Techniques : Improving Efficiency and Satisfaction of Users in Managing Daily Workstations and Rooms

Sammanfattning: In the realm of corporate booking platforms, interface design plays a pivotal role in user satisfaction and efficiency. An identified issue concerning the usability of a prominent multinational's platform, used for scheduling workstations and meeting rooms, forms the basis for this investigation. Given the intertwined complexity of enhancing user experience and adhering to company-specific requirements, the problem remains largely unaddressed, marking its suitability and significance for a Master's thesis exploration. A user-centered design methodology, driven by comprehensive usability testing, iterative wireframing, prototyping, and consistent user feedback, was the primary approach to tackling this issue. The developed prototype demonstrated notable improvements over the existing platform in usability measures such as error reduction, task completion time, and an elevated System Usability Scale (SUS) score. These enhancements hint at potential efficiency and satisfaction boosts for the users, possibly leading to increased productivity and cost-effectiveness for the company. This investigation provides a valuable case study for integrating user-centered design principles in a corporate setting, laying a foundation for similar future endeavors.
