| Criterion |  Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) |  Operations Change Analysis |  Product Discovery Outcome-Driven Innovation |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification. | For a deviation after a change, the method isolates the influence of the altered condition. It narrows down which differences are relevant and which are just accompanying noise. | Outcome-Driven Innovation clarifies customer problems, solution opportunities, and evidence. It separates jobs, desired outcomes, importance, satisfaction, and opportunity, and captures results as desired outcome statements, an opportunity landscape, and segments by underserved needs. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Medium | High |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 45-120 min | Mehrere Wochen |
Participantsdifferent | Designers, developers as users, and facilitation | 2-6 | 2-6 researchers plus sample |
Formatsame | Workshop + async | Workshop + async | Workshop + async |
Outputdifferent | Prioritized development tasks, Jointly produced code or pseudocode, Observed difficulties and open design questions, Proposed design revisions | Change Matrix, Cause Hypotheses, Validation Questions, Action List | Desired outcome statements, Opportunity landscape, Segmentation by underserved needs, Innovation hypotheses |
