Challenge
Internal and external development teams work on tasks together, but the design expectations and completed tasks sometimes differ.
This mismatch meant doing re-work to fix issues and integrations instead of taking on new tasks or projects, which sometimes resulted in missed deadlines.
The lack of standards that generic diagramming tools allow leads to inconsistent output and confusion, resulting in time-consuming mistakes and re-work.
Approach
- The C4 model enabled a lightweight way to create visual consistency.
- Diagrams-as-code was trialled but found it to be too slow for real time communication and the overhead of setting it up on every machine caused friction and felt very manual.
- The collaboration, interactive UI and visuals of IcePanel appealed to the broader team and audience, making it the tool of choice.
