Service audits and research diagnose how people experience your end-to-end service: identifying broken processes, unmet needs, operational friction, and measurement gaps.
Our UX audit agency combines field research, data review, journey mapping, and stakeholder interviews to reveal root causes and prioritise changes, enabling teams to improve reliability, customer satisfaction, business outcomes, and sustainable growth.
Any organisation delivering services, startups scaling their offerings, incumbents modernising legacy processes, or teams launching new experiences, benefits from UX audit services. Especially useful when churn, complaint volume, or inconsistent service quality rise. UX audits clarify capability gaps, misaligned expectations, or hidden handoffs, enabling targeted improvements that reduce cost and increase customer trust and lifetime value.
Run a UX audit at inflexion points: before launches, after complaint spikes, during reorganisations, or when KPIs plateau. Early UX audits prevent costly rework, while post-launch reviews address emergent gaps.
Regular diagnostics (quarterly or biannual) tune services, reduce waste, restore direction when teams struggle to prioritise or feel misaligned, prevent churn, and scale confidently.
Service UX audits examine the entire service system: connecting user journeys to operations, policies, and staffing, while UX research typically targets product interfaces and interaction behaviour.
UX audits diagnose handoffs, SLAs, and organisational incentives that shape the experience, producing cross-functional recommendations that address systemic causes, enable scalable and dependable service improvement, and deliver measurable results.
Expect a prioritised roadmap, service blueprints, stakeholder alignment maps, and a catalogue of quick wins with owners and timelines. Outcomes include fewer failure points, clearer ownership, improved KPIs, and reduced operational churn.
Our UX audit agency also delivers measurable success criteria, a follow-up plan, and recommended experiments to validate impact during implementation effectively.
The duration of a UX audit depends on its scope. A rapid diagnostic takes two to three weeks; a deeper end-to-end audit, which includes interviews, frontline observation, and synthesis, may span six to eight weeks.
Our UX audit agency sets milestones for evidence gathering, stakeholder reviews, and delivery, adapting pace to bandwidth while preserving rigorous analysis and actionable outcomes.
Yellow Slice, a UX audit agency, pairs design thinking with operational pragmatism. We diagnose root causes across people, process, and technology: delivering service blueprints, prioritised roadmaps, and stakeholder alignment.
Our facilitation secures buy-in; pragmatic recommendations accelerate implementation. Our UX audit agency also measures outcomes, reduces friction, and helps organisations deliver consistent, delightful service experiences at scale for growth.
