The Omnichannel Experience Operating Model and the Omnichannel Experience Vision are the two primary parts of the framework. The Vision is centered on generating value and comprehending customer expectations. It lists the essential components—guiding principles, intended experience, customer experience (CX) promise, and design drivers—necessary to construct a consistent experience. The Operating Model covers internal procedures, such as the design system and customer journey ecosystem, that are necessary to achieve the Vision. The revitalization of Lindström's 23 national websites and webshops served as evidence of the framework's efficacy. Online platforms with a focus on the client were to be created, guided by the Experience Vision.

The outcomes seem encouraging. Customer response to the initial websites and webshops, which launched in March 2024, has been extraordinarily positive. Customers have given the new websites high marks for being user-friendly and clearly outlining Lindström's services. This feedback demonstrates the Omnichannel Experience Framework's efficacy and offers a solid basis for using it in additional projects.
