When describing and
documenting a process, start with
the activity diagram. Drawing
helps formulate ideas and a
logical sequence of activities.
Drawing the first diagram will
probably be a struggle. When you
realize that connecting the two
activities in a logical sequence
does not make sense, it means
that there may be some activities
missing in between.
Write down questions that arise
when drawing and use them for
another interview session.
Structure the second round of the
interview based on these
questions.
Be considerate of interviewees
precious time. Try to use their
time efficiently.
Hold an experience-sharing
session among the team of
process analysts from time to
time. Experience sharing allows
one to observe and describe
patterns in processes across a
business domain
Always re-use patterns (diagram
of identical processes) where
applicable. Re-using patterns
saves time and ensures the
consistency of processes across a
business domain.
