Web usability and web redesign guidelines from literature are explained. Semi-structured interviews, inspection method, scenario analysis, competitive analysis have been conducted to capture MyCIP usability and expected improvement for MyCIP. User interface prototype is developed and evaluate. Testing and prototype design are repeating few times until users are satisfy with the outcome.
