Context
The project was set within a high-risk compliance market, where regulatory non-compliance can lead to significant financial penalties for enterprise companies.
Tracebound’s mission is to help large organizations track evolving sustainability regulations and remain compliant. However, the existing platform was fragile and not scalable, limiting growth.
The goal was to build a robust desktop SaaS solution capable of supporting enterprise clients, enabling subscription-based growth, and strengthening long-term client management.
Problem
Sustainability regulations are complex, fragmented, and constantly evolving across the U.S. and Europe.
Enterprise companies struggle to interpret requirements and translate them into concrete actions.
Non-compliance carries significant financial and reputational risks.
The existing platform was fragile and not scalable, limiting growth and enterprise support.
Tracebound needed a robust, user-friendly SaaS solution that transforms regulatory complexity into clear, actionable insights.
Reflections and Conclusions
Throughout the project, I took strong ownership of the design process and ensured UX quality remained a priority despite scope and time constraints. I balanced user needs, business goals, and technical limitations while collaborating closely with cross-functional stakeholders. If time and scope had allowed, I would have further strengthened the impact by focusing on:
Earlier user validation through usability testing earlier in the process
Stronger UX evidence by leveraging real user data to support design decisions
More structured design handoff to reduce implementation risks and developer back-and-forth
Stronger scalability advocacy to better protect long-term UX foundations under time pressure
