Business environments are rapidly evolving; new markers, new market players, new types of products, new user groups. All these changes raise different issues from those previously confronted in the computer industry. As the "usability issue" is applied to many product areas beyond traditional HCI we were interested to find our how far state of practice companies are adapting the UCD principles commonly advocated. We were also interested to see how these principles were being applied in business areas nor usually associated with the computer industry.

These human factors tools have been produced to provide designers in information technology product supplier companies with methods for the user-centred design of their products, in particular the software. The tools comprise a number of integrated tools for use by participants in the design process such as in Planning, Design and Quality Assurance. They are designed for use within the time and resource constraints of the design process and by people who do not necessarily have human factors skills and expertise. The tools were originally developed as paper based tools and where appropriate on-line versions have been developed. The user can decide which forms are appropriate to their environment. The tools are the Planning, Analysis and Specification (PAS) Toolset, the User Computer Interface Design (UCID) Tools, the Documentation Design Guidelines and QED.
