Problem
The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority aka SEPTA is one of the most reliable modes of transportation for individuals in Philadelphia, PA and its surrounding areas. For employees, to easily access basic HR information such as time off and more is not easily accessible.
*This is a concept and not affiliated with SEPTA*
Assumptions
Submitting requests are time consuming
There is currently no online presence for requests
Receiving approval is not automatic

User Interviews
During the ideation phase of the project, I conducted two interviews to build an idea on what struggles were to help create structure for the design. An interview script with 10 open ended questions were asked with a interview time of 15 mins.
Pain points of a few employees:
View their points (reprimanded system for not showing up to work or calling out)
Viewing paid time off balances
Submit & modifying requested time off
Ideation
User Stories
High
As an employee, sign into the portal so that we know we are accessing our account details
As an employee, view our paid time off (PTO) so that we do not have to call human resources support
As an employee, view points so that we know we are reprimanded for taking unexpected time off
Low
As an employee, request time off so that we do not have to call human resources support

User Flow
A path with steps created for user navigation
Helped me create a flow for the design of individual screens

Site Mapping
Useful for information architecture and deciding pages that are required and not required
Low Fidelity Wireframes
The basic view of the screens with minimal color and functionality

Enjoy the clickable prototype created with Figma.
Challenges
I feel as though another round of interviews would have been efficient to know what users actually want
Next Steps
User Tests to gain feedback
Redesign based on feedback
Development
