Discover
Design thinking for fantastic experiences
About the Discover Phase
During Discover we focus on understanding your desired outcomes, prioritizing which Microjourney(s)™ to deliver first, and getting ready for a project to start. This is designed to accelerate your transformation journey. We start the process by applying design thinking principles to your end to end customer journeys, breaking them into smaller pieces called Microjourneys, then focusing on what outcomes to deliver first.
Best practice is to deliver one or two Microjourneys that provide you with the best mix of high value outcomes, high volume repeat transactions and ease of implementation. We decide all of this during Discover, harnessing the power of Pega’s low-code platform to capture what you are building, who for and how, and what information you need. We describe this as the ‘3 pillars’ (Microjourneys, personas/channels and data) which you can directly configure in the platform.
At Pega we don’t focus on delivering your experience in one high risk release; instead we promote speed to value.
