What is Customer Centred Design?And how does it pertain to financial product management?
![Page 4: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What it is
A philosophical approach to product or service design and management
A risk mitigation strategy against launching a product customers won’t buy
A means to reduce costs through fewer service calls
Engaging directly with customers, regularly
![Page 5: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What it is not
The domain of professional designers only
A panacea to supersede all traditional product design practices
Simply asking customers what they want
![Page 6: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

How we typically work
Project Managers make a product through using expertise and working to constraints…
Customer must learn how to use the product accordingly…
Building a product …not getting it.
![Page 12: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Customer Centred Design philosophy
Customer behaves in a certain way, has goals, needs and perceptions…
Product manager builds product to match the customer’s “mental model”
Understand the customer… …then build accordingly.

Financial products are inherently unpredictable

Costs and benefitsConsiderations when choosing whether CCD is appropriate
![Page 29: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
With CCD Business as usual
Approach & costs
Some investment required up front to define the customers needs, behaviours, goals
Leverage the statistics from the marketing department
Benefits Reduce risk of misjudging customer needs and investment in flawed assumptions
Attain credibility around statistically based data
Risks Requirements take time to define which makes justifying the project difficult. The mandate is hard to predict and measure.
Relies on guesswork around specifics of customer needs and defines the experience based on legacy systems. Low innovation potential.
Cost of requirements
![Page 30: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
With CCD Business as usual
Approach & costs
Devolve decisions to the “voice of the customer” which becomes a key stakeholder
Carry on as usual making decisions that are coloured with the political aspirations of stakeholders
Benefits Create team-working atmosphere by basing decisions on objective evidence
Usual governance and processes are unchanged, resulting in efficiency
Risks Uncertainty and stakeholder skepticism can undermine success.
Subjectivity and a technology, compliance or process-lead solution.
Stakeholder engagement
![Page 31: Customer Centred Design in Financial Services](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c81bfd4a7959862e8b45cb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
With CCD Business as usual
Approach & costs
Prototyping and ongoing customer involvement can add unpredictability to scope and development costs
Don’t add any processes after requirements gathering, that may impact the scope
Benefits Predictability in returns. Assurance that the solution will be effective for customers. Costs build toward a long term strategy.
Predictability in costs.
Risks Unpredictability in costs, as the solution definition evolves with customer feedback over time.
Unpredictability in returns from defining requirements “in a vacuum”. The end results affecting the customer’s experience are unknown.
Predictability in returns vs costs
