Jim Reeves will explore the process of moving from early prototype, to the units you need for testing, user trials and pilot deployments.

This Lunch + Learn will explore the process of moving from early prototype, to the units you need for testing, user trials and pilot deployments. We will explore what needs to be representative, what can be simplified, and how to approach making the required quantity.

Choices about materials, manufacturing methods and prototype detail all affect the quality of learnings from pilots and tests. Understanding how these choices influence performance helps you interpret the findings and anticipate changes when you move to production, or plan around process limitations to deliver the experience you intend.

In this one-hour Lunch + Learn, Jim Reeves will use real product-development examples to explore:

The benefits of designing for exactly what you need to learn, prove, or show

Identifying what must be representative, and what can be simplified

Planning and executing a trial: rehearsal, onboarding and data gathering

Pre-testing outside the development team
