Cross-channel Ecosystems Strategy Andrea @Resmini UXSTRAT 2016 Amsterdam
information is all over the place
digitization has blurred the distinction between products and services
people freely connect competing products and services in emergent choreographies
the idea we can design a perfectly bounded artifact and simply drop it inside a dynamic environment has become an increasi...
still, the way we frame and design services is the way we frame and design products

cross-channel ecosystem design introduces an actor-driven approach
a systemic approach
a shift from the idea of product and service to that of experience
an experience is anything an actor considers connected to achieving a desired future state
an experience is a complex construct
it is not company-controlled it is not company-bounded
it is not product- or service-bounded either

mapping an ecosystem involves identifying a number of primary elements and their relationships
actors, tasks, channels, touchpoints, and seams
an actor is any agent in the ecosystem trying to achieve a future desired state
a task is any activity an actor performs towards that state
a channel is a pervasive, ecosystem-wide information layer
a touchpoint is an individual point of interaction in a channel
touchpoints are vessels for information
touchpoints are medium-specific, but the information they convey is medium-aspecific
channel touchpoint
channels are an abstract design construct
they might reflect the formal sectioning of an enterprise architecture model, be the result of content analysis, or emerge...

touchpoints belonging to more than one channel act as a seam between these
a seam is a threshold connecting touchpoints on the same or on different channels
while experiences should be “seamless”, sometimes seams should be visible or perceptible
for example, when moving from a secure to an unsecure connection
also, elements in an ecosystem are polymorphous
an actor could also be a touchpoint
this mapping is the beginning of a cross-channel design process

this process was condensed into 3 broad approaches and 3 proposed lines of intervention
spatialize JAG's presence (placemaking)
for example, organize open house events when artists are available for showing around visitors
personalize JAG's presence (people)
connect JAG's presence (outreach)
for example, organize art-based social events in Joubert Park or bring Joubert Park inside JAG
create flyers in the style of the traditional witch- doctor flyers to virally distribute news to the relevant crowds

  27. 27. cross-channel ecosystems identify a space of opportunity for intervention more than a finite artifact that can or should be fully managed
  28. 28. ecosystems are anything but linear
