Reducing wait times through operational efficiencies and digital ticketing.

We worked directly with Merlin Digital in partnership with the Director of digital products and services to redefine the guest experience of the future. We co-created the vision and conducted a series of product trials across Legoland parks to create intrinsic value for the business and customers.

This included initiatives that sped up entry to parks, reduced friction in the check in process, added new features to the mobile app and aligned cross functional global teams.

We crafted customer personas and redesigned a global app platform that was a core feature of the end to end customer experience.

 

Project outcomes

We delivered an improved customer experience with the business processes to support them, we achieved this through lean experiments derived from hypotheses.

  • The Legoland California app rating moved from 1* to 4.5* reviews

  • Reduced time to enter parks

  • Prevented investment in poor guest solutions

  • Active collaboration into multiple vendors — New features & products surfaced regularly through collaborative approach: mobile ticketing, photo retrieval, room booking, table reservation and more.


Mind Mental Health

Service Optimisation & growth

IMG_3371.jpg

Mind mental health charity sustains its free services by offering a number of paid for products to corporates. The Mind Workplace Wellbeing Index (WWI) offers an annual benchmarking study of best policy and practice for mental health within an organisation. Businesses can opt in to become part of the annual assessment and are scored against their industry peers.

Partnered with Etch and the Mind WWI team, we co-created a future strategy to optimise operations and grow the offering. We conducted stakeholder interviews and mapped the internal technology and processes against the customer journey. This identified areas of opportunities which we then workshopped to formulate a proposal and implementation plan.

 

Project outcomes

We identified areas of the operations that could be digitised, optimised or removed to enhance the customer experience and create internal efficiencies to grow the offering.

The outcomes..

  • A service blueprint to take away and maintain

  • 5 strategic hypothesis to implement, test and learn from

  • A very happy, focused team
