SIEMENS

Digitally transforming the industry of building controls.

Siemens powers some of the largest and most iconic public infrastructure in the world. When it came time to digitize their control systems, they turned to Humdinger to develop an elegant UX and design solution that leapfrogged everything in market.

From the start, we know this experience would fall into the hands of millions of HVAC technicians, young and old. We needed to create something that would easily integrate into the field that would land in stride with technicians’ daily routines, while greatly improving the amount of equipment they could monitor and improve to remove any doubt or barriers to adoption.

Climatix Mobile App

Over a period of 6 months, Humdinger worked hand-in-hand with the Siemens engineering team through a multi-step process that consisted of discovery explorations, information architecture, visual design exploration, and end user testing. Leading to the final creation of an groundbreaking mobile experience that allows HVAC technicians to gain greater insight into commercial equipment, plus enhance their business model by reducing costs and opening new opportunities for ongoing support.

Expanding our capabilities

With rave reviews at Siemens, we continued to expand our capabilities within the organization, taking on marketing and educational material. A series of video guides, tutorials and walkthroughs were produced to further encapsulate the app based software into a cohesive, end-to-end experience.

A design system to span the globe.

The end results proved to be so successful, we were asked to expand and build a global UI library for the entire suite of Siemens building technologies. The UI library has now been fully integrated into dozens of Siemens global product experiences and continues to be utilized throughout some of the world’s largest and most important energy dependent infrastructures.
