User Centric helps businesses innovate, transform and succeed in a digital world.

We carry out research with your users and then design products, services and ways of working based around their needs and desires.

For us, a need is something you cannot live without, such as air, water and food. A want is something that you don’t absolutely need but will make your life a little better. A desire is something you wish to have, regardless of your needs and wants. Thus, you may lack food but still desire happiness.

    We think we are a smart bunch, but not smart enough to figure all of this out by ourselves. If we can’t collaborate together this won’t work at all.

We truly believe, the only way to ensure a company’s success if by talking to those who need and use your services, that’s your users. By talking to them, analysing what they are saying/not saying and aligning those facts to your company goals.

We call this our “USER” framework.
