IN ACTION - Strabag
STRABAG.
Boosting efficiency by enabling efficient communication, accurate invoicing and reduced paperwork.
STRABAG needed a user-friendly app for their milling and emulsion sectors, tailored to the specific needs and technical skills of their construction crews. The app required real-time data exchange with STRABAG’s ERP system and had to support diverse departments, including milling machine operators, road construction workers, and recycling personnel, each with unique workflows. Additionally, the app needed to be multilingual for operations in 9 countries and function seamlessly both online and offline to accommodate limited internet connectivity on project sites.
We provided STRABAG with a robust, adaptable app solution that enhanced operational efficiency and set a new standard for digital transformation in the construction industry.

User interviews & observations.
Understand user needs and gather deeper insights into user behaviour and preferences.
We conduct qualitative user interviews and observations to gain deep insights into user goals, behaviours, needs, and pain points. Interviews provide direct feedback and personal perspectives, while observations reveal hidden factors and actual behaviours in users’ natural environments. Both methods offer valuable insights into the user experience, uncovering contextual influences and interaction dynamics.
These findings inform actionable recommendations, driving product improvements and enhancing user satisfaction by addressing real-world usage patterns and needs.

Usability testing.
Validate and enhance designs with real-world user feedback and interaction.
Usability tests, conducted with real users, provide critical validation and refinement of design changes. These tests can be moderated or unmoderated and carried out on-site or remotely, depending on the project’s needs. Participants perform specific tasks while we observe and collect data through video recordings, screen captures, and detailed reports.
This user feedback reveals real-world usage patterns and uncovers issues that may not be apparent through expert reviews alone. The iterative nature of usability testing ensures that enhancements are grounded in actual user interactions, resulting in a more intuitive and satisfying user experience.
