Tadam

Tadam sets itself apart in food delivery industry by prioritizing accessibility, customer satisfaction, and sustainability.
Project Description

Tadam is a food delivery app that aims to enhance customer service quality while reducing delivery costs, making it more accessible.

The Tadam team planned to launch the brand quickly in the international market and approached me in the early stages of developing their MVP to create a distinct branding identity and develop the UX/UI design for the mobile app's further development.

The food delivery industry is intensely competitive, often described as a saturated 'red ocean' where differentiation through branding and recognition is crucial for standing out. In this challenging context, my role was to go beyond mere visual design to fundamentally enhance service quality and customer experience. Tasked with transforming the typical delivery interaction within a tight timeframe, I focused on redesigning service delivery protocols and user interaction touchpoints, aiming to create a seamless, efficient, and memorable customer experience that sets new standards in customer satisfaction and brand loyalty.

Research

Through in-depth research into the food delivery market, I identified several significant challenges within existing apps:

  • Poor Customer Service: Many users reported slow response times and inadequate resolutions to their complaints, leading to a frustrating experience. For instance, issues like incorrect orders were often met with delayed or no refunds, reflecting a lack of proactive customer support.

  • Promotional Overload: Apps were cluttered with intrusive third-party advertisements, overshadowing in-house promotions and diminishing the user experience. This not only distracted users but also detracted from the app's core value propositions.

  • Late Deliveries: Frequent delays in deliveries were a common complaint. Users expressed dissatisfaction with the inaccurate time estimates provided by the apps, which often did not account for real-time variables like traffic conditions or order complexity.

  • Confusing User Interface: Many apps featured cluttered layouts and inconsistent design elements, making navigation difficult. Users frequently cited problems such as finding specific menu items or navigating through the checkout process as particularly cumbersome.

Design

Drawing from a wealth of experience and refining existing methodologies, I have developed the Interactive Layered Prototyping (ILP) method. This approach utilizes layered digital canvases that allow for quick alterations and easy exploration of different design concepts before any physical or high-fidelity digital model is created.

Starting with a base layer that outlines the core structure, additional layers are added which represent different stages or components of the product. Each layer can be edited or toggled on and off, providing a flexible and dynamic way to visualize and modify components without affecting the underlying structures. This method is especially effective in identifying and addressing flaws at early stages as each layer can be independently reviewed and adjusted.

Testing

Beyond my own experience and the ideas from the Tadam team, I organized a focus group where real users conducted the first prototype test. We gathered fresh insights and implemented them into the MVP before launching the product to the market. This test helped me refine every touchpoint our future clients will have with the app, enhancing the simplicity and efficiency of its use.
