Ensure the Best Possible Start for Your AR Project

Getting Started with AR

One of the biggest challenges facing an organization embarking on its AR journey is to clearly articulate and share those first all-important AR use cases. Without a precisely-defined use case, requirements cannot be identified, a business case cannot be built, and support for the project – both financial and strategic – cannot be assured.

Once we have a shared conceptual foundation, we can discuss the concrete benefits of AR, as well as the risks of introducing AR in the enterprise with our audiences. On this page, you will find a variety of resources and recommendations to help you in beginning your AR journey.

Why the Framework?

The AREA created the Enterprise AR Use Case Development Framework to help organizations overcome these obstacles. By following the Framework’s detailed, step-by-step process, an organization can consider all factors and home in on the AR use case best suited to their needs.

Framework Goals

The result is a use case that considers and captures all relevant details and fully meets the organization’s needs. With that clearly-defined use case in hand, team members advocating for the AR deployment can engage with colleagues to solicit and incorporate their feedback. They can then build a strong business case for the solution and present it to their management teams to garner their support and funding.

Framework Benefits

The Enterprise AR Use Case Development Framework isn’t just for getting started in AR. It offers a proven methodology and lasting value for any AR initiative:

  • It ensures use cases are written in business language that all stakeholders can understand.
  • It helps organizations prioritize features for system selection.
  • It makes it easier to measure the value of the proposed solution.
  • It helps to ensure a solid Return on Investment.
