Our Usability and User Experience Services

Applying an approach built on the principles of ergonomics and user centred design, our UX and usability consultants can help you develop products that are efficient, effective and satisfying to use.

Our experience includes running international usability projects, co-ordinating programmes in many different countries including Europe, Asia and North America.

In business since 1981, everything we do is driven by our promise to deliver expert insights that inspire business confidence. We like to work closely with our clients, becoming the first port of call when they have a challenge to address. Ultimately we want our clients to be successful. There’s no easy ‘one size fits all’ solution – so our highly qualified consultants bring innovative thinking and approaches. We’re a friendly bunch from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines: we all enjoy the work we do, and look forward to tackling new, interesting projects.
