Ecosystem Mapping

Identify and prioritize critical product relationships

Experiences don't occur in a vacuum. AI products don't work in a vacuum. When you are developing an AI product, you need to understand your users context and the broader system context. Ecosystem mapping allows you to do this in a structured and actionable way. This leads to insights on what you already understand about your customer, but also where you are lacking information and goals.

How we do it

We create an initial ecosystem map prior to a journey workshop through in-depth internal one on one stakeholders interviews. During strategic workshops we then discuss business goals, and existing research and data that illuminates details of the ecosystem.

  • Create the initial Object Inventory - what people, technologies, and institutions are relevant to your business environment?
  • Identify the frame(s) of reference: who or what is the focus of the challenge - there can be more than one frame of reference
  • Analysis of the current state of the ecosystem and the desired future state
  • Explore the implications on your strategy, product and/or service roadmap
