PROJECT INFO

My role

I lead the UX design team and my individual responsibilities include: the research, UI/UX design, and wires to composition execution for these projects. I was also responsible for presentation design to the SVP.

The app reduces the amount of paperwork and policies employees will need to memorize.

The Challenge

The business goal was to create a mobile application for SNAP to facilitate (SAP) workflow Approval / Rejection / Hold for invoices, purchase orders and purchase requests. A UI guide, travel portal that connected with SAP, and Office 365 connection was needed.
