🖼️ Background

Site administrators managing large volumes of digital content faced challenges balancing high workloads with the need to efficiently surface trusted, peer-reviewed materials. Similar to operational staff juggling bookings and guest management, these admins required streamlined tools to quickly identify and promote the most valuable resources—minimizing friction and maximizing operational efficiency.

🎯 Goals
  • Streamline content discovery and management to reduce admin workload and improve operational efficiency

  • Enable data-driven decision making by surfacing actionable insights through intuitive visualizations and filters

  • Enhance user confidence and satisfaction with a reliable, easy-to-navigate dashboard

  • Support scalability by designing reusable components and a flexible architecture for future feature growth

  • Drive adoption and engagement by addressing core user pain points uncovered through research

🤝 The Deliverables:
  • User research and journey mapping to identify admin pain points

  • Redesigned information architecture for improved content discovery

  • Wireframes and interactive prototypes showcasing core dashboard workflows

  • Visual design and reusable UI components aligned with a scalable design system

  • Detailed design specs and developer handoff documentation

  • Stakeholder presentations to communicate design rationale and impact

🥳 Expected Outcomes and Key Metrics:
  • Increased admin efficiency — reduce time spent searching and vetting content

  • Improve content visibility — boost engagement through better discovery

  • Enhance decision-making confidence — measured via surveys and feedback

  • Adoption and retention — track active usage rates of the dashboard

  • Task success rate — measure how easily admins complete key workflows like filtering, report generation, and content promotion

  • Reduced error rate and support tickets — aim to minimize user errors and reduce support requests related to content management
