IMPACT

Design Outcomes

  • Increased self‑service completion by 25% through end‑to‑end billing redesign

  • Owned featuers that reduced call center volume 19.5% 

  • Conducted quantitative and qualitative research to inform design decisions

PROBLEMS

Repeated questions drove call center volumes up

53% of call center complaints are centered around billing confusion

Important information split across different pages

When customers went to pay their bill, information was fragmented

PROTOTYPING

Bill Simplification

Easier to understand bills, through web, mobile, and physical copy

No more digging through records for bills

Documents stay with Entergy alongside updates and processes

PROTOTYPING

Data Visualization

Finding the metrics users wanted displayed in real-time was complicated, as well as figuring out which method of data visualization would be most effective. I drafted different versions of line charts, bar graphs, and pie charts depending on the data depicted, as well as different iterations of metrics in designs.

SOLUTION

Landing on the Final Solution

Early on, I assumed giving users the ability to drill down into data was the solution. But as I dug deeper, I realized the real challenge was deciding which types of data users needed a detailed view of vs. a summarized view.

REFLECTION

Focusing on Key Flows

  • Validating assumptions early can prevent building solutions on an incomplete understanding of user needs
