|---|---|---|---|
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 tightly scoped process segment with noticeable waste, the method bundles shared energy for change. It suits situations that call for fast learning loops and visible adjustments. | It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Medium | Low |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 0.5-5 Tage | 15-30 min |
Participantsdifferent | Designers, developers as users, and facilitation | 4-10 | 1-6 |
Formatdifferent | Workshop + async | Workshop | Workshop + async |
Outputdifferent | Prioritized development tasks, Jointly produced code or pseudocode, Observed difficulties and open design questions, Proposed design revisions | Kaizen Charter, Waste List, Improvement Experiments, Standard Work Update | Eisenhower Matrix, Action List, Delegation Notes |
