Service design

Service design is the complete redesign of a service, from what customers see to the processes and people that make it possible behind the scenes. Through human-centered research and service blueprints, TUSI finds where the experience breaks down and designs a service that is simple for customers and workable for the organization.

A good service is more than a good-looking screen

Customers don’t see the organization chart; they experience a single service. When each department designs its own part in isolation, customers fill the gaps themselves, with phone calls, waiting and repeating their details.

Service design finds those gaps and treats employees as users of the service too. For S&H Hypermarkets’ channels, CRM requirements and an RFP were prepared before any design began, because a digital channel doesn’t work without the process behind it.

Frequently asked questions

How is service design different from customer experience design?

Customer experience looks at the whole relationship with the brand. Service design redesigns one specific service, with all the processes and people behind it.

What is a service blueprint?

A diagram that shows the customer journey alongside the work of employees and back-stage systems, and reveals where things break down.

Is this only for service companies?

No. Any organization with after-sales service, customer support or internal systems benefits from service design.

How are fees for service design set?

Fees are set after the discovery meeting and confirmed in the proposal. They depend on the scope of work, the size of the organization, the number of deliverables and the timeline.

Why TUSI for service design?

TUSI’s researchers, strategists, designers and developers work side by side, so a service is seen both from the human point of view and from the point of view of delivery.
