Flow Map (Current vs. Ideal)
Side-by-side visual comparison showing how your workflows operate now versus how they should work.
What the Flow Map Shows
Current State Diagram
Your actual workflow mapped in detail. Every step, every handoff, every decision point, every delay.
- • Pain points highlighted in red
- • Bottlenecks marked with time delays
- • Workarounds documented
- • Dependencies mapped
Ideal State Design
The reimagined process with friction removed. Streamlined, clear ownership, minimal handoffs.
- • Simplified steps
- • Clear decision rights
- • Automated where possible
- • Smooth handoffs
Gap Analysis
We don't just show you two diagrams. We explain exactly what needs to change to get from current to ideal:
Process Changes
Which steps to eliminate, combine, or reorder. What to automate.
Role Clarifications
Who should own each step. Where decision rights need to shift.
System Requirements
What tools, templates, or documentation you need to support the new flow.
Behavioral Changes
What habits or norms need to shift for the new process to work.
Decision Rights Matrix
Every ideal state includes a Decision Rights Matrix using the RACI framework:
Does the work
Makes final decision
Provides input
Kept in the loop
This eliminates 90% of "do we need a meeting for this?" questions.
Example Transformations
Client Onboarding
Current: 12 steps, 6 handoffs, 4 approval points, 3-week timeline
Ideal: 7 steps, 2 handoffs, 1 approval point, 1-week timeline
Project Kickoff
Current: Informal, inconsistent, key details often missed
Ideal: Standardized template, clear roles, documented decisions
