Swim Lane Diagram Activity
Diagram Explanation:
Client Interaction: This lane focuses on the client's involvement in the process. It starts with the client providing initial requirements and ends with the client's feedback on the final design.
Design Team: This lane represents the core activities of the commercial design team. It start with
brainstorming, followed by creating initial sketches, refining the design, and finally presenting the design to the client.
Management & Approval: This lane is about the internal review and approval process within the design company. Relabeling for Proprietary Information:
Any specific design methodologies or proprietary tools used by the design team have been labeled as "Design Methodology" and "Design Tool" respectively.
Client names or specific project details have been omitted to maintain confidentiality.
Conclusion:
I chose this specific process/mind map because it visually represents the workflow of a commercial design company. By breaking down the process into distinct steps and visualizing the flow, it can help the design company identify bottlenecks, streamline operations, and ensure that sensitive information is appropriately labeled or redacted. This visualization can also serve as a communication tool for both internal teams and external stakeholders, ensuring everyone is aligned on the process. References
