The contexte
Aleia is an open, industrialized, sovereign and secure platform in charge of deploying and operating Artificial Intelligence applications The Delivery Park application was born from a simple observation: delivery drivers park today in unregulated spaces in Paris and complain about not having access to enough delivery space. DeliveryPark is an application project designed by Aleia which lists the stops of urban delivery companies and which consequently allows local authorities to manage their urban planning and regulation policies.
Project Planning
Step 1 : Understand
I did a quick audit of the existing system and a user-flow to understand the delivered paths. I then organized a meeting with the developer to know the technical limits of the project. This is how I learned that we could not display all the delivery spaces on all the map of Paris at the same time because it represented too many elements to load and therefore a considerable waiting time for the user. The solution chosen was to propose a list of delivery spaces in a key district in order to gain in performance.
Step 2 : Prototyping
Once my benchmark with the competing applications was done, I moved on to the creation of the screens while at the same time setting up my design system with its graphic charter from scractch.
Onboarding
Declare a parking in a shared delivery zone
Create a parking space

Where are we today ?
Win Making an application by creating its own graphic charter and its own design system is extremely satisfying for a designer. Exchanging with the developer on the technical constraints of the product was extremely precious because thanks to him I was able to build a feasible application.
Frustration Conducting user research upstream of the project to validate the needs of delivery drivers would have ensured the relevance of certain features (ex : creating a parking space). Conducting user tests in order to validate the usability of the model would have allowed us to eliminate certain design errors before moving on to development.
