the task
Our client develops and supplies hundreds of different products for their customers across the globe. jellybean was asked to help design and build an online hub of NPD information for one of their global customers. This would allow key personnel to search for existing products across different regions, reducing the need for similar products entering the innovation pipeline and improving product development efficiencies. The hub needed to become the ‘go-to’ place for the customer to find innovation news.
The Solution
We held a workshop with all relevant stakeholders to determine functionality requirements for both the customer and client users. Following this we developed a Technical Specification Document, wireframes, page template designs and HTML files to enable the digital team to build the online hub.
jellybean worked closely with stakeholders to manage the upload of hundreds of products, images and specifications. This data was tagged and structured in such a way that users could search for products in many different ways e.g. Country, Category, Food Type etc. The system also included a free search functionality making it easy for the customer to identify NPD opportunities.
Up to date NPD data was uploaded by the client making the system a real time solution.
The Results
The NPD portal was launched in November 2020. Online training sessions were carried out for our client’s teams and their customer.
