Health Metrics is a company specialising in healthcare analytics and data management solutions. Their end to end enterprise software solution, eCase aids healthcare providers across Aged care, Retirement Living, Home Care and Disability Care by improving patient care and operational efficiency through precise data collection, analysis, and reporting. It focuses on delivering customisable solutions that meet the specific needs of their clients, ensuring improved outcomes and enhanced organisational performance.
Challenge
Health Metrics operated without a design system in place, resulting in a platform lacking foundational design components. This absence led to inconsistency and an outdated platform, primarily crafted by developers rather than guided by a unified design strategy. Every element had to be designed and developed from the ground up.
Solution
Create a comprehensive design system to serve as the definitive source of truth, harmonising design principles and elements. Through clear and precise implementation guidelines, prioritise delivering a high-quality experience for clients. The design system was an ongoing project, constantly growing and evolving.
Research phase
I reviewed existing design assets, components, and patterns across all platforms and identified inconsistencies and areas needing standardisation. Then analysed successful design systems from other companies such as Shopify, Mailchimp, Atlassian, IBM, Google, Apple and many more for best practices and insights.
