It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Percival, Lynn C. (1987): Reworking the User Interface During Convergence of Several Software Products. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 710-714.

This paper documents the role of human factors engineers in some aspects of a development project for a large software product used in a complex operational environment. The process by which the user interfaces for several products were converged into a single one is described. Techniques for evaluating the user interface in this complex environment are discussed. The process involved preliminary testing to document problems, subsequent design and development activity, and verification testing to document improvements and remaining problems.
