Summary as of 12th January 2018

What is Blocking Us / Issues

  • Still finding our feet with regard to the tempo of planning user sessions/ allowing time for reflection and iteration
  • Three team members still have issues gaining access to Lunar House (2nd week of reporting)

Just Done

  • User study sessions completed in Edinburgh and Birmingham (total of 14 participants): example feedback “very good rapport and good balance with a lot of opportunities for us to be involved”
  • Access to Jira
  • Home office email accounts
  • Permanent desk space in Lunar House confirmed for the team
  • The team talked to Matti Keltanen - HO service designer
  • Built continuous integration pipeline
  • Set up deployment namespace in ACP (Application Container Platform)
  • Created set of re-usable govuk themed React components

About to Do/Doing

  • User Study sessions at the Crick and Kings College (Monday, Tuesday)
  • Capturing of findings from user sessions and decisions on next steps

Things to be aware of

  • It’s hard to believe that this was only our 2nd week (next Tuesday is day 11)
  • Terry Ma, interaction designer, starts work with the team next week
  • Aspasia will be mostly unavailable for the next two weeks
  • We probably need some thinking time to fully digest what we’ve learned from user studies
