Failure Coding & Root Cause Analysis

The sequence somebody actually follows in IFS Cloud, step by step, written for a person doing the work rather than for a diagram.

Every entity this process needs, mapped to its IFS object, marked mandatory or optional, with the source system it comes from. This is the list a data migration is built from.

The choices this process forces you to make in IFS, named up front. Finding these in week nine of a program is what makes week nine expensive.

What this process is measured on, so the reporting requirement is known before the process is configured rather than after go-live.

Where this process has to talk to something outside IFS, and what crosses the boundary.

The questions to ask the business about this process, written before the workshop. This is the difference between a design session and a discussion.

What has to be true before this process can run at all: master data, other processes, setup completed elsewhere.

How this process differs by industry: the parts a utility does differently from a manufacturer, already worked out rather than discovered.

A real BPMN diagram, editable in the platform, not a picture of one. It is the same diagram your team will annotate in the workshop.

Where this came from. Every process traces back to IFS documentation and release notes, so a claim about how IFS behaves can be checked rather than believed.
