Project Overview

Goal: Reimagine SHIPEX’s mobile and web platforms to deliver a cleaner interface, faster navigation, and improved shipment tracking for both businesses and individual customers.

Role: Lead UX/UI Designer

Tools: Figma, Illustrator, Photoshop

Duration: 3 Weeks

The Challenge

The original SHIPEX app was functional but cluttered, making it hard for users to quickly track shipments or book deliveries. Our challenge was to create a minimal yet feature-rich interface that could handle complex logistics workflows without overwhelming the user.

Our Process

1. Research & Analysis

  • Competitive study of 5 logistics platforms (e.g., DHL, FedEx)

  • Interviews with 10 existing SHIPEX users

  • Identified bottlenecks: slow booking flow, confusing shipment status indicators, lack of bulk tracking features

2. Wireframing

  • Mapped out new booking and tracking flows

  • Simplified menu hierarchy to reduce clicks by 30%

3. UI Design

  • Clean, minimal palette with SHIPEX brand blue as an accent

  • Intuitive icon set for shipment statuses

  • Emphasis on whitespace for clarity

4. Prototyping & Testing

  • Conducted usability testing with 8 logistics managers and 5 retail customers

  • Added bulk upload feature for businesses

  • Redesigned shipment progress tracker for better clarity

Our Solution

  • One-Tap Tracking: Track multiple shipments from a single screen

  • Simplified Booking: Booking process reduced from 6 to 3 steps

  • Smart Status Indicators: Clear, color-coded shipment stages

  • Bulk Upload: CSV upload for corporate clients to book multiple shipments at once

font combinations of the brand which we have used in the design.

Impact & Outcomes

  • Reduced booking time by 50% in testing

  • Improved shipment status clarity with zero misinterpretation in feedback sessions

  • Business clients rated the new interface 4.8/5 in usability surveys

Reflection

Designing for logistics means balancing data density with simplicity. The success of SHIPEX’s redesign came from stripping away unnecessary complexity without sacrificing functionality.
