Ingersoll Rand Inc. is a multinational company that provides mission-critical flow creation products and industrial solutions.

challenge

Ingersoll Rand needed a personalized global products website with enterprise content management to accommodate its customers, partners and employees around the world.

solution

Hypotheses were developed to inform strategy and design, followed by exploration and contextual observation testing with end-users and stakeholders. Solutions became clear over time as the hypotheses were explored.

We helped Ingersoll Rand select Adobe Experience Manager and Marketing Cloud.

  • User research with customers and stakeholders to test prototypes of the newly designed web and software
