Innovation Vouchers

• The system is a good piece of engineering• We also want it to be a good piece of design

• Engaged an external supplier (TSB IV)• Re-skin the GUI• Help develop the brand/identity• ‘Tell the story’• Make it clear that this is a Stirling system

• Discussion with a University (SWIV)• Look at how humans gather information about

their visual environment

Summary

• Innovation Vouchers are an excellent way of funding engagement with a supplier you wouldn’t normally engage with• Internally funded project, budget is tight, yet

design support may well prove the difference• Likely to lead into follow-on work for supplier

(app development)• Supplier can also potentially support in other

areas of our business• Relatively simple application process

­ Good support available from SCB

Thank you for listening
