UX/UI

The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA)

Designing an audit tool to ensure UEFA brand standards are preserved across a global landscape of broadcasters.

Background

As the largest governing body for the most popular worldwide sport, UEFA needed an audit dashboard to track brand infringements across hundreds of broadcasters.

Challenges

The greatest challenge for this project was the in-depth audit trail required for the brand. Communication with broadcasters needed to be easy and concise to account for more rural broadcasters with limited technology abilities. There were also roadblocks we had to overcome importing and rendering broadcast videos.

My Role

My role as the lead designers was to collaborate with UEFA leadership in Switzerland to gather requirements, present workflows and provide design briefings and updates. Integrate with the engineering team to implement the design, participate in daily scrum calls and perform testing.

Making the Grid

One of the main deliverables for this project was to provide clear specs to the engineering team that was located in Germany to assure each componenet was buit for responsiveness. This required laying out the responsive grid for each component and providing the technical specifications.

Monitored Programmes

As one of the three main sections of the dashboard, the Monitored Programmes tracked infringements by a specific broadcast. The UI needed to display the results in an organized, and easily identifiable structure so UEFA could quickly pinpoint major infringements in the program and create the necessary clips of the broadcast with visuals and timecodes to send to the broadcasters.

Unmonitored Programmes

As the second main area of the dashboard, the unmonitored audit allowed UEFA to identify all broadcasts worldwide and tag any for monitoring.

Infringements

This section of the dashboard tracked all infringements reported to the broadcaster for resolution. This where the true audit trail began. UEFA could track communications with the broadcaster, what information has been provided to them, as well as how the broadcaster was responding. This portion of the dashboard improved inner-organization communication and reduced their manual auditing time immensley.

The Extras

Two main features UEFA requested was the ability to upload documentation for each infringment and provide it to the broadcaster for downloading. This also need to be a feature for UEFAs auditing team to upload any specific information pertaining to an infrginement or broadcast for excecutive leadership.

Due to the extreme amount of broadcasters and events worldwide, a robust filtering tool that was easy to access was a necessity.
