3. Customer
Insights
People
didn’t
mind
wai5ng,
if
queue
moved
faster,
and
were
treated
well
at
the
end
of
the
wait.
When there are fewer customers, the service delivery was quick and
efficient and surplus staff could have provided extra services.
Customers increasingly relied on a person guiding them where to go or
what to do next inspite of signs.
Even a well equipped counter could not serve well because the queue
system was dysfunctional.

10. What
we
Learned
• “I am going to put myself in the user’s shoes while designing solutions;
prototype possible designs and give options to the Users to choose.”
- Srinivas
• “It will help me in re engineering and redesigning processes/ providing
Innovative and simpler business solutions before Migrations.” - Krishna
• DT will help me in structured thinking, ideating plus implementing by
prototyping and testing. It helps in scanning the core problem area with
respect to people, process and technology and perform a complete radical
thinking so we arrive at new school of ideas. So think better and make
others think better too. –Veera
• “Good learning experience on solution validation in reality” - Jay
• “It is very important to make sure that our ideas are not constrained by our
goals, whenever we apply design thinking to our work” - Koel
