Services people actually use.
Research-led UX that places end users at the center, prototyping, usability testing, and 508 compliance by design, not retrofit.
Make it look like it cost a fortune. Build it so it didn't.
The public shouldn't have to tell a government system apart from the best commercial product they used yesterday. We design to that bar, then engineer it to run at mission scale, on mission budgets.
Design that starts with the user, and proves it.
Research, prototyping, and accessibility engineering embedded in delivery teams, the interface is tested with real users and audited against 508 before it ships, every release.
Research & discovery
Interviews, field observation, and journey mapping with the people who do the work, findings that name the friction, not just describe it.
Prototyping & usability testing
Clickable prototypes tested in every sprint, task success measured before code is written, so releases ship answers, not guesses.
508 & accessibility engineering
WCAG 2.1 AA built in from the first component, contrast, focus order, labels, and ARIA validated continuously, aligned to USWDS.
Research to release, every sprint.
Research
Sit with the users. Watch the workaround. Every design decision traces to something a real person did, said, or couldn't do.
Prototype
Make the idea clickable before making it expensive, flows tested on paper-cheap prototypes while change still costs nothing.
Test
Usability sessions with the actual audience, task success, error recovery, and time-on-task measured against the release before it ships.
Certify
508 and WCAG 2.1 AA validated as part of the definition of done, accessibility is a gate the release passes, not a memo it receives.
Findings get fixed, not filed.
On a DHS mission program, HCD research and usability testing run inside the DevSecOps teams, a finding raised in a session becomes a ticket in the same sprint, and the Tier 2/3 service desk closes the loop from the field.
