Clarifies connections, patterns, and leverage points by collecting undesirable effects, formulating causal links, and deriving interventions.
Core question: Which few core causes lie under the system's undesirable effects, and at which leverage points would an intervention resolve the most UDEs at once?
Turns workflows, data, causes, and improvements into a tangible result by clarifying the system goal, identifying the bottleneck, and repeating the cycle after expansion.
Core question: Which process step currently limits overall throughput, how can this constraint be exploited to the maximum, and which escalation level (exploit, subordinate, elevate) is next?
Turns relationships, patterns, and leverage points into a tangible result by collecting undesirable effects, modeling root causes, and deriving obstacles and implementation steps.
Core question: Which core conflicts and root causes generate the observed UDEs, which changes resolve them, and which prerequisites and transitions are needed to implement the changes?
Turns workflows, data, causes, and improvements into a tangible result by mapping the process flow, measuring waiting time and WIP, and re-evaluating the bottleneck after changes.
Core question: Where does work accumulate in the process, which step limits overall throughput, and which escalation level, utilization, subordination, or elevation, is the next effective move?
Turns options, criteria, and risks into a tangible result by defining the problem or decision boundary, collecting constraints, and deriving design or decision rules.
Core question: Which hard and soft constraints limit the solution space, and which of them are negotiable?
