{"ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"Annex uses evidence during delivery rather than treating quality as a final inspection step. A brand name was selected through user testing, and website prototype testing informed and validated our approach. The Annex team worked collaboratively with the AER to deliver an evidence-based solution that met the needs of Energy Innovators. Depending on the engagement, evidence can come from research, prototype validation, functional or accessibility testing, analytics and stakeholder feedback. The success measures should follow the real user and service goals; Annex does not publish one universal metric for every stakeholder engagement & co-design project.","answer_source":"initial_seed_from_approved_annex_knowledge","category":"Stakeholder Engagement & Co-design","category_slug":"stakeholder-engagement-codesign","confidence":"grounded_in_approved_public_brain","conversation_stage":"validation","created_at":"2026-09-11T03:15:00+00:00","date_published":"2026-09-11T04:46:59+00:00","display_date":"2026-09-11","editor_images":[{"alt":"Australian Energy Regulator \u2014 Digital Guidance","description":"Person viewing energy regulation guidance webpage on tablet","source":"annex_v7_preloaded","source_image_id":"annex_real_003","url":"https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/60f1133ba7288a73bf4472bd/645c32b71b6e61ada0ec1cab_63f7fe9981f9dbcb2f8a8421_Image%2520%2526%2520video%2520area%2520-%252016_9.png"}],"freshness_warning":"","id":"annex-qa-25-09","image_ids":["annex_real_020","annex_real_012","annex_real_036","annex_real_019","annex_real_017","annex_real_003","annex_real_033","annex_real_008","annex_real_029","annex_real_013"],"image_url":"https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/60f1133ba7288a73bf4472bd/6141a4eef5af9856239d13af_projects-actew-design-system-headerL.jpeg","inline_image":false,"inline_image_role":"","json_url":"/answer/how-does-annex-keep-stakeholder-engagement-and-co-design-grounded-in-evidence-rather-than-assumptions.json","language":"en-AU","last_updated":"2026-09-11T03:15:00+00:00","needs_review":false,"preloaded_inline_media":true,"preloaded_inline_media_version":"annex-v7","public_disclaimer":"","publish_status":"published","published_at":"2026-09-11T04:46:59+00:00","question":"How does Annex keep Stakeholder Engagement & Co-design grounded in evidence rather than assumptions?","question_intent":"quality","review_status":"initial_seed_reviewed_for_source_grounding","rss_enabled":true,"schema_enabled":true,"site_key":"annexaidt","slug":"how-does-annex-keep-stakeholder-engagement-and-co-design-grounded-in-evidence-rather-than-assumptions","source":"approved_annex_public_brain","source_record_ids":["annex-projects-helping-energy-innovators-power-ahead-01","annex-projects-helping-energy-innovators-power-ahead-02","annex-projects-quick-quality-assurance-01","annex-projects-ics-project-02"],"source_type":"initial_seed_public_brain","source_urls":["https://www.annex.com.au/projects/helping-energy-innovators-power-ahead","https://www.annex.com.au/projects/quick-quality-assurance","https://www.annex.com.au/projects/ics-project"],"status":"published","tags":["stakeholder-engagement-codesign","quality","annex","initial-seed"],"updated_at":"2026-09-11T03:15:00+00:00"}
