Operations Platform
A product site and onboarding flow for an early-stage SaaS explaining a complex product simply.
Rethinking how a B2B manufacturer presents capability and routes technical enquiries.
This is a self-initiated concept. The business is hypothetical and it is not client work — the thinking, design and build approach are real.
01Current state
Manufacturers often have serious capability — certifications, machinery, tolerances — presented as a static brochure with a generic contact form.
02Business context
They need specifications, capacity and proof of process quickly. They send detailed enquiries — which then sit in a shared inbox.
03Constraint
Every enquiry arrives as an unstructured email. Sales can't tell which needs a same-day response.
04Strategic decision
Capabilities become a navigable system. The enquiry form asks the questions sales would ask on the first call, then routes the result.
05Design system
A grid drawn from technical drawings, monospaced data and an industrial orange used only for action.

Aa Aa
Sans for structure, serif for reassurance.
06Experience
A buyer can filter by process, material and tolerance, then send an enquiry pre-filled with what they were looking at.
07Development
Capabilities, materials and industries are modelled as data so the site can grow without redesign. Enquiries post directly to the CRM.
08Final state
The intended outcome: enquiries arrive qualified, assigned and ready for follow-up, with a simple view of the pipeline.
