Pain Points
There are multiple points:
UX was incomplete and at some places was not optimized.
UI was not according to the client or was not aligned with the UX.
Incomplete screens were there. Flows were missing.
Features were missing which were essential and were also provided in PRD given by the client.
Last but not he least, client did the standup for 2 hours daily.
Solutions
There are multiple points:
We did brainstorm again in order to do the correction in UX.
Re - did the UI part where needed.
Added missing screens or tried to find a better way to optimize the experience.
Added missing features which client required.
We managed to balance between stand ups and designing.
Conclusion
Be ready with your questions even if you think that the question is silly.
Ask the client for the inspiration/reference if not provided and if client fails to do so then we all know the drill ;)
Always try to give consultation but be very careful not to force your decision on the client.
Going an extra mile won’t hurt.
Hear out the client. Try to write point on what does your client requires and what are the pain points. Sometimes, you get a solution from the client only.
Have your options ready before showcasing your work on a daily stand up with the client. By doing this, you will be saving a lot of time for yourself.
