...more than 70% of those because of bad User Experience and lack of a Design Strategy.
Avoiding the fate of these 90% projects is not rocket science, you just need to understand the importance of the role design plays in a product.
You begin by understanding the correct scope of design. As Steve Jobs said "Design is not how it Looks, Design is how it Works"
The Scope of Design is vast and includes a lot more than creating wireframes and screen designs. It begins right from the start of a project, from finalizing requirements to delivering a product that truly serves its users. Here are some activities designers perform that often go unnoticed:

A Designer/ Design Team that understands the problem, get involved in the project at the right time, and follow a process that can give you predictable, measurable and repeatable results, ensuring that the project gets among the 10% that succeed.
The understanding phase involves deep exploration of the problem space. It includes gathering insights from stakeholders and users, defining project goals, and identifying user needs and pain points. This phase lays the groundwork for informed design decisions, ensuring that the final product aligns with both business objectives and user expectations.
Integrating the design team at the start of a project is crucial for maximizing value. Early involvement allows designers to ensure that user experience is prioritized from the beginning. This approach leads to better-designed products with higher adoption rates, as it aligns the product more closely with user needs and expectations.
A well-defined design process is essential for enhancing the quality and efficiency of work. While established methodologies can guide teams, customizing a process to fit the specific needs of your design team and company ensures better alignment with project goals. Tailored processes streamline workflows, reduce inefficiencies, and ultimately lead to more successful, user-centered outcomes.
By following a proven process and methodology, we can eliminate the unpredictable nature of creative work. Following the process enables us to accurately estimate the effort required to do the work. In addition to that we can predict threshold of quality we will be achieving.
