Public Q&A

Is there a published Annex example that makes Service Design tangible?

Service Design · 2026-08-23

A useful published example is Helping energy innovators power ahead — Overview and context. We partnered with AER to help them better understand the problem to be solved, then name, brand, design and deliver a website that would meet the needs of Energy Innovators. The Annex team worked collaboratively with the AER to deliver an evidence-based solution that met the needs of Energy Innovators. It is relevant because it shows Annex applying service design to a real delivery problem rather than describing the capability only in theory. The exact scope of a future engagement would still depend on that client's users, constraints and existing environment.
