DePuy Live Brief....

This next project is to create a info graph for a company, basically conveying a lot of data. I need to think about the data we need, color coding in reference to machines, how much gets used. To begin we are asked to create a questionnaire so i am prepared when meeting the company, this will be to get to know your user, and collect all the data i need for my info graph. ( a visual of the problem with bar charts around it.)Before creating the questions i need to :

• Identifying the user
• Find out who does what
• What products do what ( understanding how the machines link together.) etc.
• What data needs to be harnessed?
• Where does it reside?
• Who has responsibility of it?
• Who needs to use it?
• What needs to happen to it to turn it into a meaningful actions for the business?

Questions such as :

•  How many watts are used within that chain?
• How much electricity goes into each machine?
• Who carries out the trainning, elaborate for example: how much does it cost to train? is there a training plan? etc

The main key is to try and understand  the personality of the company,whats working and whats not working. Creating this info graph will have to be very sophisticated  as its for business type places. It must communicate quickly and effectively.
