Problem Statement

The Biomiq (previously Sterasure) website has a mismatch between its content, which is focused on businesses, and its main features, which are designed for consumers.

The company also had a second website dedicated to only businesses, with some products appearing on both sites

Research

Research Overview: This research focuses on the challenges of merging two websites to address different business models and user expectations. The goal is to identify best practices for creating a unified digital platform that harmonizes B2B and B2C dynamics for Biomiq (previously Sterasure)

Site Map Analysis: The initial Biomiq (previously Sterasure) website had a complex and confusing structure. The sitemap revealed a disorganized hierarchy, hindering users from easily finding products and services. A redesign is needed to create a more user-friendly, intuitive interface for better navigation.

Customer Journey & Competitor Insights: Competitor analysis highlighted diverse approaches, such as separate business categories for Microsoft, Coca-Cola, and Apple. These strategies offer clear pathways tailored to different user needs, offering lessons for Biomiq (previously Sterasure) redesign.

Initial User Testing: User testing (20 participants, aged 18-40) revealed several UX issues in navigating the site. Including poor information architecture, misaligned mental models, and weak product association. Improvements suggested include clearer navigation, better brand association, enhanced CTAs, and a more intuitive layout. Feedback stressed the importance of iterative design to address user confusion and optimize the user journey.
Key UX Considerations:

Guiding Principles & Framework

1. Humanized: Work with Marketing and Design Systems to boast a wider range of humanized messaging, tappable components, and warmer colors to migrate away from the cold and corporate feel.
2. Clear & Simple: Create a clean, consistent, intuitive interface that minimizes steps and reduces cognitive load when consuming.
3. Inclusive: Ensured the platform was accessible to all users, incorporating features like screen reader compatibility, clearer content design guidance, responsive layouts, and adjustable text sizes.
4. Timely: Test and iterate on cross-functional and vertical-supported UI and components using Figma and Atomic design principles.
