Controlling digital products with design systems
A design system is a set of design principles, components, guidelines and tools used to ensure consistency and efficiency in the creation process of all digital products in an organization.
These assets serve as a single source of truth for designers, developers and other stakeholders to collaborate seamlessly and create brand-compliant user interfaces and experiences.
Working closely with our clients, we create adaptable design systems that meet their specific needs and enable them to tackle design challenges with confidence. Our team is at your side for the development, optimization and maintenance of your design systems.
The advantages of a design system:
1. Efficiency
- retains reusable design and code assets
- increases productivity and improves collaboration
- reduces costs
2. Highest quality
- aims to achieve a uniform appearance and feel
- Updates after usability tests
- fulfills new business requirements
3. Consistent brand experience
- increases general satisfaction with the brand
- conveys the values and culture of the company
- initiates and hosts brand updates

Our Projects
In the following section, we would like to present four examples of how we have successfully implemented innovative technologies for digital product development in partnership with our customers over the past few years.
Allianz
Globales Design System
We supported Allianz global as one of the world’s leading financial services companies in the creation, development and maintenance of its B2C/B2E design system. From pixel-perfect icons to components and complex patterns, we worked with Allianz to develop a scalable, accessible and well-documented design system that modernizes the look and feel of numerous digital products and optimizes the brand experience for customers and employees.
FASresearch
Digitaler Situation Room: Situation R
For our client FAS Research, we have been developing the central, digital tool SituationR software for the implementation of collaborative workshops for decision-making for several years. In close cooperation with the client, the product vision and central design principles resulted in a successful digital product that is used by FAS Research both for workshops with a physical presence and for remote formats. The agile, user-centered way of working is crucial to the success of the software, as is the trusting collaboration and regular exchange with the customer’s product team.
ÖBB
Smartphone app for train attendants
The latest Nightjet and Railjet train sets from ÖBB are equipped with the latest sensor and control technology and can therefore be fully digitally configured and maintained in the interior. Together with a team from ÖBB Personenverkehr AG and ÖBB Business Competence Center, we at dmcgroup conceived and designed a web application for train attendants’ smartphones. This application enables the control and monitoring of all functions in the train that previously had to be carried out manually in each carriage. The application was developed in an agile project setup with the ongoing involvement of train attendants.
