Five C’s of a Situational Analysishttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situation_analysis#5C_Analysis
COMPANY
How is the business supported today, that can’t be broken?
How can the site better support the business?
decision-makers • brand • finance
COMPETITORS
What is the expected baseline in this market?
What is everyone else not doing yet?
direct • aspirational • indirect (recruitment)
CONSUMERS
What are our consumers trying to do and why?
What can we give our consumers that doesn’t directly benefit our company? (ex. knowledge sharing)
people • search engines • devices • APIs
CONTRIBUTORS
Which tasks are most repetitive or cumbersome and can be optimized?
internal • consumers • APIs
We can’t create a great user experience if we don’t understand what our site needs to do.
@anthonydpaul
Why are we even working on this website?
Communicate the brand and a positive [audience type] experience.
Allow [audience type] to quickly determine [a specific thing].
Drive [audience type] toward contacting [a specific department] to inquire about [a specific thing].
@anthonydpaul
“boomerang” task analysis
1. List all tasks performed within the site
2. Cluster by related tasks (result = audience roles)
3. Audit each cluster to make sure it’s complete
4. Prioritize roles and prioritize tasks within roles
@anthonydpaul
Our instinct is to imagine someone like ourselves.
Most of our users are nothing like us in any way.

stress cases over “ideal”
@anthonydpaul
Who we test with defines who we care about.
i.e., Accessibility, real-world “Stress Cases”
