| Criterion | ![]() Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) | ![]() Operations Standard Work Analysis |
|---|---|---|
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. | When the same task is done differently depending on the person, the method exposes the reliable core. It creates comparability without unnecessarily choking off needed latitude. |
Complexitysame | Medium | Medium |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 1-3 h |
Participantsdifferent | Designers, developers as users, and facilitation | 2-6 |
