INFINITECH User Stories
INFINITECH aims to target business problems and challenges faced in the financial industry. For that purpose, User Stories from pilot partners were gathered, describing and providing the necessary information to analyse the most important problems, gaps hindering the exploitation of available data assets, and the limitations of existing data services. For this task, was used only a sub-set of the Business model canvas, dedicated to the Value Proposition. The Value Proposition Canvas Methodology has the purpose to collect information and in a very simple way identify the characterisation of the user within the story, by identifying 3 things: Jobs to be done, pains and gains. This helps INFINITECH Stakeholders identify their objectives, the reasons behind these objectives, and how these can be achieved.
The structure of the methodology provides a visual advantage by facilitating the association of the value propositions with the stakeholders' requirements. Based on this Value Proposition Canvas methodology all INFINITECH stakeholders answered to a questionnaire following 2 steps.- The 1st step of the process is the User Characterization, meant to identify jobs to be done, wanted gains and experienced pains.
