Utility Project Management Tool

Description

I designed an internal tool to replace Excel-based tracking of utility projects. After a detailed meeting with the internal client, I realized that while they were comfortable with Excel, we could offer a more interactive, intuitive solution that streamlined their workflow. I proposed four different design approaches in Adobe XD, ranging from traditional tables to interactive project cards, each offering unique ways of displaying data. After a client review, we settled on an accordion-style table (Option 2), allowing for seamless project and work order management in a more compact and organized view.

Key Features:

  • Accordion Functionality: Users can expand/collapse specific projects to view associated work orders, minimizing page clutter.
  • Project Categorization: The tool offers multiple levels of categorization, grouping projects by type and status for better overview.
  • Interactive Cards: For the more visual-oriented users, I designed an option featuring clickable project cards that open detailed views and allow quick access to work orders.

Technologies Used

Adobe XD, collaboration with developers on interactive components.

Challenges Overcome

Condensing large amounts of Excel data into a user-friendly interface while maintaining the ability to add new project information easily.
