Who we’ve worked with
About us
Nomat helps organisations to design digital products and solve business problems through research insights and human centred design.
We use a range of techniques to collect information that informs design; ultimately we place people at the heart of the design process which delivers the most effective products and the right solutions for your customers.
Embedded within our culture are pragmatism, a focus on solving real problems and holistic thinking. This leads to positive commercial outcomes for organisations, team members and customers.
At Nomat, we follow a collaborative and inclusive process to ensure there are no surprises and we leverage your team member’s collective knowledge of the problem space.
We are a lean team, we don’t place account managers between clients and consultants, we assemble the right people, at the right time, to ensure that we can move quickly and deliver value.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
As we move through 2021, the impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues to influence the workplace. We want to let you know how the team at Nomat are taking precautions to deal with the situation while continuing to deliver human centred design services (including research).
Of the utmost importance is the health and safety of our team, our clients and those we conduct research with. As such we are closely monitoring the Victorian Government and Commonwealth Government health advice and are tightly monitoring the public health situation.
We are currently using a mixture of in-person and remote working systems to complete projects depending on the situation and project needs. We have significant experience in undertaking remote working, including the facilitation of remote usability testing (both mobile or desktop), remote interviews, meetings and workshops. We are committed to taking positive and proactive action during these difficult times to keep projects on track and to be able to respond to our valued clients or any new business needs.

COVID-19: Time to get to work
Many teams, like ours at Nomat, started the work from home routine a week ago, for us it was a scary decision, but we believe the right one.
