🎯1 SCOPE: What challenge are we addressing?
Establish a shared understanding of the challenge, its background, and its potential impact. Set the foundation for effective design.
1. Why this step matters
Every project needs a clear sense of direction. In this step, you’ll begin to shape the challenge your team wants to explore. Rather than jumping to solutions, this is your opportunity to ask: What do we really need to work on—and why?
2. What this step helps you do
Translate everyday frustrations into a focused challenge
Align your team or organisation around a shared goal
Set a foundation for meaningful user engagement and discovery
3. How to approach it
You don’t need to get it perfect. Start with a working definition of the problem based on what you currently know. This first articulation helps you get started—and gives you something to test, reflect on, and possibly revise later. In Step 2, you will go deeper into who this challenge is for—your users and key stakeholders—and what matters most to them.
4. Suggested tool
A simple and shared definition of the challenge you’re exploring. It gives you a clear starting point for planning your discovery work.
