Problem Space


What is Lapor Diri ? (Self-Report)

Lapor Diri means self-report, this is where users who are residing outside of Indonesia are requested to report their current residence status and contact information for Indonesian census



Why target Lapor Diri ?

To increase the efficiency of the services provided by the consulate such as passport extension,  emergency aids and other consulate services. 

For instance, Maintaining and improving the line of communication between the consulate and the Indonesian citizens abroad in the case of emergency i.e. COVID-19



Initial Concept


Lapor Diri Application

This app would be an easier to access platform that students can go to and start their Self Report on their mobile phones.

Feedback from the Consulate

While it is a good concept, it wouldn’t be a cost effective solution in terms of labour and financial

Reframing: Key Takeaways from the feedback


Looking back, we were presented several concept designs, after continuous back & forth interviews and discussion, our team gained an opportunity to present and reflecting on its results, we reframe our initial concept to be:

Focus on reducing inefficiency and manual labour by designing a cost-effective landing page or onboarding process that will be implemented in an upcoming seminar to educate Indonesians on how to correctly fill out a self-report application




Proposed Concept: Interactive Guided Onboarding



Guided Onboarding

A step-by-step interactive guide that acts also as a tutorial on how to do the self report process properly.

The landing page will act as an entry point for attendees of the Self report seminar to view and interact with the Self Report guide.




A guided simulation experience
of self-report


An onboarding process where the attendees can use during the consulate’s seminar by scanning the QR code displayed on the presentation material (banner, slides, etc.) at the seminar. The process will guide the user step-by-step as the follow along at the seminar


Step-by-step tutorials 




The Self Report guide will be interactive. All of the fillable sections and buttons are interactable where users can press and see a message that will guide them in filling out their own self report.

Reflection


During our collaboration with the Consulate General of Indonesia, I had the valuable opportunity to engage in one-on-one interviews and workshops. These experiences taught me the importance of analyzing interview insights and understanding client needs to foster empathy-driven design. By strategically assigning responsibilities according to our individual strengths, our team cultivated a creative environment through regular meetings and open discussions. I am genuinely grateful to both our client and my team for this enriching opportunity.
