Our Process

Our project approach is iterative, continuously researching and evaluating as we design. Diverse project teams are guided by a PUSH Project Manager and consist of PUSH staff from both academia and commercial practice.

 

We begin each project with a deep understanding of your business and technology needs. Collaboratively, we build a scope of services and timeline that fits your goals and budget. Over the course of regular design sprints, we research, design, evaluate, and deliver a solution to address your specific challenges and user needs.
