  8. Public Grievance and Redressal • Intense pre-product consultation, limited additional changes. • Mixed city adoption, even when bundled with other products. • Design ideas from three sources: • User innovation & customization in specific cases (bounded by technology barriers) • Required explicit and additional effort to elicit user feedback. • Analysis of usage patterns.

  9. What Seemed to Work? • User participation often takes extra effort • User innovation tactics: Identify & involve “lead users” • Creation of boundary organizations • Insulate user fora from user organization hierarchies. • Connect discussions to leadership & decisionmaking. • Revealed preference + stated preferences: usage tracking
