When requirement is generated from Leadership Team and classic design process is used to deliver a new feature



  1. Understand the requirement

  2. Make a PRD

    1. The PRD shall have the following questions

      1. What problem are we solving?

      2. Screenshot or video recording of the problem?

      3. Why are we solving this? What’s in this for us? #business impact

      4. What is our current situation & where do we want to reach? #numbers, qualitative response

      5. When do we measure success? #date & time

      6. How are others solving this problem? #competitors analysis

      7. What is the proposed solution?

      8. User stories/ user flow

      9. User persona

      10. Existing design (screen recording)

      11. Existing design files (Figma)

      12. Timeline of this project

      13. What is the screen resolution of the final designs?

      14. Light mode or Dark mode

      15. What is my TEAM looking like (Example: POC for TECH, POC for Design, Operations and other tasks etc)

  3. If PRD is made by someone else, then review it
    Talk to the stakeholders, understand the full problem.


  4. PRD accepted.
    Make sure to calculate the time needed to complete designs and review and update. Give the final timing to be put in the PRD


  5. Create a task in ClickUp
    Raise a task in ClickUp, it’s our main tool for managing and tracking progress. This can be done by the Product manager or Project Manager or the designer involved.

Research & Exploration



  1. Research

    1. Competitors

    2. Our existing product

  2. Map user journey & User Persona

  3. Low Fidelity wireframes

    1. You can be as creative as you want in taking feedback on Low Fidelity. Maybe you can use AI to have mid to high fidelity prototypes or you can go the classic way of making the low Fidelity designs on FIGMA

  4. Review
    With Manager, Engineer and Business stakeholders.
    Check if it’s technically feasible


  5. Design system-
    Ensure that the new designs are following our design system.


  6. Finalize HFD (High-Fidelity) designs & review from any one peer designer.

    1. Good practice

      1. We don;t edit on the old designs, we make a copy of the old designs and update on them, so that all the history of the work gets recorded. 

      2. We keep all the feedbacks written, based on which the new version has been updated



  1. Prototyping
    Prototype the happy flow only


  2. Testing (wherever applicable)

After getting stakeholder approvals, validate your designs through user testing. You can do it on your own or coordinate with the Product Manager or the UX research team  to conduct it



  1. Final Review (All stakeholders + HOD)

With the testing data in hand, connect with Aman for the final design sign-off and ensure the approval is documented



  1. Handoff final design to developers

Once designs are validated, hand off all required media assets to the development team.
This should be concluded by a message , or an e-mail to stakeholders for completion of the task, and with the final link to designs.



Development & launch



  1. Product development
    Help the engineering team with whatever queries they have. BUT NO DESIGN CHANGES CAN HAPPEN AT THIS STAGE


  2. Testing

Once development is complete, conduct a thorough testing and approve if there is a minimum 95%  match with the approved designs and the finally developed product.


Your sign off is important before the new feature is bushed to live



  1. Feature Launch
    Add the date in your calendar, when you will check the data of how the feature has performed in the actual world. Either you will do it or the project manager will do it for you.



  1. Publish the results
    After all , the impact that has been created matters the most. So do not forget to share the results with your team and HOD 





When requirement is generated from Leadership Team and you want to use AI tools to quickly deliver to make a new feature.



  1. Understand the requirement

  2. Make a PRD - Use Chat GPT ot any other AI to write the PRD
