Challenge

When Product Ambition Outpaces Team Capacity

As demand for new features and improvements increased, design became a bottleneck. Limited team capacity, fragmented request channels, and the absence of a centralized workflow created invisible workloads, uneven distribution, and slowed execution across products.

Our Solution

Scaling Design Through System, Talent, and Clarity

Gizalab acted as a Creative Enabler by embedding designers and researchers while establishing a structured Design Ops framework. We helped BRI scale execution without sacrificing visibility, quality, or team health, turning design into a reliable delivery engine rather than a constraint.

What We Delivered

Operational Enablement at Enterprise Scale

We supported design delivery across 40+ digital products by deploying dedicated squads, standardizing workflows, and introducing a centralized system to track capacity, priorities, and progress. Dual workstreams were established to balance day-to-day execution and long-term exploration.

Milestones

From Bottleneck to Scalable System

Design operations evolved from ad-hoc execution into a structured, visible, and scalable system that enabled faster delivery, clearer ownership, and healthier workloads across teams.

Lesson Learned

You Can’t Scale Products Without Scaling the System Behind Them

Sustainable innovation requires more than additional manpower. Clear workflows, capacity visibility, and intentional team structure are what turn design from a bottleneck into a business driver.
