challenge
At Nike, the cost planning team keeps tabs on everything from design to manufacturing expenses for the entire lifecycle of each product. At the time the entire process was manually tracked on excel sheets leaving room for errors, out of date info, and limited leadership visibility. Nike aimed to streamline this manual process, slash report creation time, uncover cost savings, enhance leadership transparency, and improve overall accuracy.
solultion
As lead designer we shipped a Nike proprietary cost planning app, titled MTM, built on Adobe Air technology.
Starting with interviews and close collaboration with Nike cost planners, we designed a highly visual dashboard and detailed data views that align to internal processes. Additionally, the platform supports collaborative editing and report creation tools that help cost planner nail presentations bringing life to the data.
MTM resulted in improved leadership visibility and timely insights leading to cost saving decisions.
