  • Brand assets scattered across drives and folders
  • Feedback collected in unstructured formats
  • No visibility into design team capacity and workload
  • Difficulty tracking design system adoption

The Runwork Solution

  • Structured design request intake with priority scoring
  • Centralized asset library with search and versioning
  • Feedback collection forms with annotation support
  • Workload dashboard showing team capacity and timelines
  • Design system tracker with component usage analytics

Key Features for This Use Case

A Day in the Life

8:30 AM — Request triage. Seven design requests came in overnight. Your design request portal scored them automatically based on deadline, requester, and project type. You review the queue—three are high priority, two need more detail. The workflow sends clarification requests automatically.

10:00 AM — Asset hunt. Marketing needs the Q3 campaign logos with transparent backgrounds. Instead of digging through folders, you search your asset library. Found in seconds with version history and usage rights attached. Share the link directly—no downloading and re-uploading.

1:00 PM — Feedback collection. The homepage redesign needs stakeholder approval. You share the designs through your feedback collector. Stakeholders can annotate directly, leave structured comments, and approve their section. All feedback in one place, not scattered across Slack and email.

3:00 PM — Workload check. The product team wants to know when you can take on their dashboard redesign. Your workload dashboard shows current capacity: two designers at 90%, one at 60%. You can give an honest estimate and slot the project appropriately.

4:30 PM — Design system audit. You check your design system tracker. The new button component is now used in 47 places across the product. Two teams are still using the deprecated version—the automation flagged them for follow-up.
