Problem Definition
Finding the exact location of the meeting rooms in Environics Analytics is a difficult task to do according to the employee. Especially our new team members are struggling to find the rooms they are assigned to within 2 floors. Most of the people are continuously checking the meeting rooms physically by walking all 3 suites in 2 floors or asking poeple who might be an old co-worker.
User Observation
I've selected 5 employees working for Environics Analytics and assigned a room which they do not recall their location on the same floor. I explained each step what participants are going to do before I start the observation and also testing at the end. I explained how their data will be used and recorded time when they were trying to find their assigned room thinking that they are in a rush. They were all free to ask people to find the meeting rooms or walk physically. Here are the users indicated below.

User Observation Results
1. All participants had difficulty finding the meeting room they couldn't recall
2. Most of the participants tried to recall by the meeting they did previously
