Mobile Employee Benefit Selection | Shell

September 20, 2018 by Dawn Barnhart

Time Frame:

Sept 2018

Project:

Shell Employee Benefit Budgeting Design
Problem Background / Scope Definition: Shell Oil requested a new feature within the existing Mobile Employee Experience App (MEE) to assist employees with the selection and budgeting of ongoing benefits. Shell Oil

Mandate:

“The main focus is on budgeting—Employee says “I want $10k in travel benefits” and we want to indicate to the employee within the MEE that they have a budget of X, they’ve used Y and have Z remaining.”

Sprint User Goal:

“As an employee I can easily see where I stand vs myestablished budget balances so I can make informed benefit decisions.”

Design Sprint Team:

Sprint Facilitator, Product Owner, UX/UI Designer, two Business Analysts, Product Manager

Rationale for Design Solutions:

After testing various ways to present the re-occurring benefit choices in a ‘mobile-first’ user test, we used a series of screens that offer per-benefit choices that the user can move through. The user sees her real-time update of benefit package choices as those choices are made. The user can tweak benefits to achieve her desired benefit within the company’s standard-of-care package.
