Using the playbook

Understand the stages of the service design process and learn how the Playbook can help design and deliver user-centred, accessible digital services.

Planning

Planning is essential in the design process. Learn how planning helps your team focus on the right things from the start and sets you up for success.

The discovery stage

Explore the problem and develop a deep understanding of your user's needs.
Plays in this stage help your team challenge existing ideas of what the problems and solutions might be.

The alpha stage

You understand your user's needs; now it’s time to think of some ideas and experiment. Plays in this stage help you create prototypes and test them against your research.

The beta stage

Build and test a solution based on the hypotheses validated in alpha. Plays in this stage help you release a version to the public and get feedback to improve the product or service.
