While EY had plenty of valuable assets on their site, both publicly and behind a login, they needed to be more modern and demonstrate value to their clients.

EY was looking for a way to elevate their current feature-rich offerings into a centralized dashboard - data that was getting lost and was difficult for users to find and access. The interface I developed contained all of the top level functionality of their apps, but with a new dashboard style experience that could address several different user types, relationships, and status.

The user journeys were the key to reaching a concept that had value to more than one kind of EY user.

The chatbot concept has preloaded options and would be able to assist with document searches within a project.

An important consideration was for the existing user-base as they transition away from their current experience and into this new one. We created a first time user experience for the new interface, made access to the apps they frequented recognizable, easy, and customizable to allow for the widest audience.

Note: This was early conceptualization between Code and Theory and EY. This may not be the final designs or concepts.
