Challenges
- As the timeline was reduced to launch the site in line with the company’s largest campaign this year. We introduced fast paced iterative work flow to the design and development phase. This allowed us to receive client approvals quicker and minimise risk during the development period.
- Short timeframe between site launch and campaign messaging updates, which created extra time pressure, as we needed to provide early CMS training and support.
- Client requesting changes to the Design System during the development phase, which impacted the delivery plan, but we still managed to stay focused and go live as planned.

Utility bar
The utility bar was redesigned to improve navigation after many visitors to Bupa.com mistakenly believed they were on the consumer site, leading to confusion and abandonment. The previous bar failed to redirect users effectively and took up too much screen space. The new design offers geolocation-based “quick links” to commonly searched services, simplifying navigation and enhancing the user experience.
