Assignment

Mind Mapping

Challenge: In the Organization that I am working in, which is a highly regulated Pharma Industry, we  have several procedures and standards that need to be applied while implementing or developing a  computerized system. It has been a challenge for associates to know all the standards, regulations and  procedures, visualize them all at one place and apply them appropriately based on different scenarios.  Using Design Thinking and Mind Mapping tool technique tried to resolve this challenge by providing a  mind map of regulations, standards and procedures at one place in a single frame or window for  associates to refer.

Selection: Found Mind mapping tool to be very effective to solve this problem or challenges since the  mind mapping technique creates a very good analytical representation in a very user friendly way. Using  this tool, could successfully create a mind map of all regulations, standards and procedures including  different categories of computerized systems so that application development teams can apply them  easily rather than spending too much time figuring out what are the relevant standards, procedures, were  are they? What to apply in which scenario.

Application: Using the mind mapping tool, came up with a high-level pyramid structure and mapped all  the Standards, Procedures, Guidelines, Controls with different types of computerized systems and what is  relevant for different categories of computerized systems. Used Mindjet Manager Application for mapping.

Insight: The Design for Innovation course helped me to understand how to solve business  problems, challenges in day-to-day life using different tools and techniques, apply critical thinking  and design thinking principles. The Mind Mapping tool helped me to solve this problem, which was  saving lots of time for Application Development teams to see all relevant standards, procedures,  controls at one place and apply them to be compliant.

Approach: I would try to automate this entire process of applying relevant standards, procedures  based on the category of the computerized system being implemented by providing a mind map,  dashboard.
