Project & Company Details

MassMutual

Insurance, retirement, and investing. That’s what we do. People helping people. That’s who we are, and mutuality is the principle that’s guided us since the beginning. 

The Ask

Fully rebuild tables for business and consumer-facing applications. 

Problem statement:
why do we need to revamp the table component?

 

  • currently we have 4 different applications which

needs different levels of table components. Since they
are designed by different designers which encountered
inconsistency and some usability issues.

 

  • at the same time, our engineer team proposed a table framework

which is agnostic & feature rich, would be a good start for us to reconsider
design our table components.

Problem Statement

Why do we need to revamp the table component?

Currently, four different applications require varying levels of complexity and functionality in their table components. Because these tables were designed independently by different designers, inconsistencies have arisen across applications, along with several usability issues that impact the overall user experience.

The Approach

Led cross-functional collaboration to rebuild the table component, defining key use cases and designed a flexible table system with advanced functionality.

  • Empathized with designers through interviews and workshop exercise to collect requirements and design direction.

  • Defined key problems based on both designer frustration and user needs.

  • Ideated and prototyped multiple solutions, prioritizing accessibility and scalability.

  • Tested designs with stakeholders, iterating based on feedback to ensure table functionality met  business needs.

  • Implemented final designs in close collaboration with engineering, ensuring high-quality delivery.

The Outcome

Enhanced overall usability, resulting in a 15% increase in task success rates. Streamlined the initial setup to reduce development time by 30%, enabling faster, more consistent delivery and improving the user experience across all applications.
