Department of Infrastructure - Intranet User Research

12 months after launching a new intranet experience, the Department of Infrastructure engaged me to evaluate the current performance of the department’s intranet and identify where improvements could be made.

I designed, facilitated, and led an in-depth user research study to understand how the departmental intranet experience can be improved for staff, content editors & owners, and intranet administrators. Through workshop and interview sessions I collected insights from over 20 stakeholders, operational staff, and intranet contributors, which was complimented by 100 responses to an all-staff survey for generalised feedback about the intranet, and 16 responses to a survey tailored to intranet content editors.

After reviewing my findings through research synthesis, I produced a comprehensive research report, which detailed research methodologies, findings, thematic insights, and a roadmap of improvements to be made both immediately, and in the long-term.

Key achievements:

  • Delivered a 50 page research report, providing transparency into the methodologies, findings, and recommendations of the research study

  • Provided granular guidance and recommendation on 30 individual immediate improvements to the intranet experience, and 5 long term considerations for the future of the department’s intranet
