Cognizant Digital Experience began by training UX designers in the ideation and research that’s central to product companies. They standardized the digital payments provider’s processes to ensure effective collaboration among its consolidated teams. Despite the company's desire to capitalize on the benefits of reusable user interface (UI) components, the team lacked the dedicated staff required to keep files updated and ensure a living toolkit housed the standardized UI components. To address this, Cognizant established an environment for the free flow of ideas, holding sync-up meetings and prioritizing team collaboration. Each UI component was assigned a code that helped the product design team design and scale faster. Procedure standardization facilitated further knowledge sharing among team members.
