Product

Ad Hoc’s product practice helps government build the right things, in the right ways.

We do this by working with our customers to measure success in outcomes, rather than output. Our product approach uses agile and human-centered design principles to understand problems and shape solutions. We start by defining the problem and use discovery techniques like formative user research and prototyping to broaden our understanding and explore solutions. All of this is guided by a customer-designated Product Owner, who helps us manage priorities and what we learn from users along the way.

Ad Hoc product managers often play the role of servant leader, strategist, and coach. They help drive products and experiences forward based on the needs of people, rather than requirements.
