Overview

Digno is a platform for agile management of tasks, goals and rewards inside an organization. Its AI scoring engine generates an employee score from completed tasks, consistency and engagement, and places each score in one of four ranges, from Poor to Pro. In future, the score could also help with human resource pooling.

Scope of work: idea to product, strategy and design, branding, marketing content, web app and website.

The challenge

Executives and managers used several tools but still could not get one central view of their people and projects. Digno wanted a platform that:

  • Gives centralized visibility over resources and projects.
  • Complements the goal-setting models organizations already use: management by objectives (MBO), key performance indicators (KPIs) and objectives and key results (OKRs).
  • Turns performance into a clear score that managers and employees both understand.

Our approach

Our team gathered the requirements of different stakeholders and users to define how the score is calculated, and studied competitors that had tried to solve similar problems. That research shaped five core experiences.

Keep a close eye on employee performance

Managers compare employee scores side by side and see who is leading at a glance.

An all-in-one solution for goal management

We designed the Digno brand and marketing content alongside the product, so the platform presents one clear story: all-in-one goal management and employee evaluation.

The solution

We built a central platform to manage employee data and calculate the Digno score. Its primary modules are:

  • Organization score: one health score for the whole company.
  • Department scoring: how each department performs on productivity, engagement, tenure and consistency.
  • Individual employee scoring: each person's score, tasks and progress.

The organization dashboard brings employees, departments, the health score, a leaderboard and department charts into one view.

Department pages break the score into its factors and summarize goals assigned, completed and pending.
