At Northvolt efficient battery production processes are key to meet the ever-growing demand help shape the better future of energy. A stoppage on the production floor requires the rest of the team to be informed and being as simple as possible to be reported by the Operator. I took on the initial MVP to iterate and further develop the reporting tool.
Adaptable visual hierarchy based on context
Less entry repetition through presets and duplication
Clearer interface enabling further distance (e.g. when mounted)
Simple to edit and complete report when requested
Easier to submit feedback
Visual clarity for all nationalities
Time to submission
Surface touch area preciseness, does the user tap where expected?
Time to navigate to the correct Downtime reason
Observe amount of reports with missing info
Amount of reports required to be edited by the Operator
As few ‘Other’ submissions as possible
Lowered frustration by entry repetition
A selection of steps from the Operator user flow — aiming to prevent menu diving by expanding and collapsing categories.
Idle screen with simple access to previous Reports
Content clearly divided into main actions and secondary information
Menu items using full screen estate for improved touch precision and hierarchical navigation
Dropdown allowing for quick swapping between top tier Categories
Sent view allowing Report to be saved as preset for recurring events
Sidebar access to saved Presets for quick duplication
The interface becomes easier to scan and read using large buttons in combination with icons. Shortcuts in sidebar also allows even faster entries.

Test on-site and observe
A/B test variations, see which performs best and validates metrics
Lo-fi prototype with interactions to be used by Operators
