Vendors wanted to build 50+ features. After talking to 50+ staff members, I found they just wanted accurate data.
I cut the feature list by 30% before writing any code.
What I Did
- User research with 50+ staff members
- Cut vendor feature list by 30%
- Defined API contracts before development
- Built SQL architecture and Power BI dashboards
The Result
- 95% user adoption within 30 days
- 82% faster queries (45s → 8s)
- On-time delivery
Key Takeaway
Data consistency matters more to users than feature quantity. Research before building.
