Building a traceability platform in a low UX maturity ecosystem demands ruthless focus on simplicity and evidence. This talk covers the journey from first pilots to multi-partner rollout. prioritising features, integrating IoT where it adds signal, and using experimentation to cut cognitive load across exploding channels (web, store, QR, conversational).
Outcomes:
- Run a “simplicity audit” to remove friction in onboarding, data entry and compliance workflows.
- Prioritise tech investment with an experimentation backlog tied to ROI and regulator risk.
- Integrate IoT/sensor data with clear validation rules and human-in-the-loop exceptions.
- Establish cross-org rituals (readiness checks, SLA milestones) that shrink cycle time from invite → active partner.
