Context

While working on SAP Business ByDesign, UX compliance checks were largely manual—requiring designers and developers to repeatedly verify adherence to guidelines. This process was time-consuming, inconsistent, and difficult to scale.

Problem

• High effort spent on repetitive compliance checks
• Inconsistent interpretation of UX guidelines
• Limited ability to enforce design quality at scale

Approach

• Reframed UX guidelines as structured, rule-based systems
• Proposed automating compliance through a rule engine
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to explore and shape the solution

Outcome

• Shifted effort from manual checks to automated validation
• Enabled more consistent and scalable UX quality
• Recognized internally as an innovation initiative

From Initiative to Formalization

This work extended beyond implementation.
