The Method "Logic MindGuide" Print E-mail

In daily business we are often challenged by complex, unfamiliar tasks. It is important to quickly understand the situation and draw the right conclusions.
Logic MindGuide is a requirement analysis, planning and decisioning method that allows to face those challenges and produce results of highest quality.

The method combines and adapts several well-established and proven methods and models. It is based on "Quality Function Deployment" (QFD) and its working system "House of Quality", which is a quality planning method originally coming from Japan.

One big strength that comes handy in practice is that soft facts can perfectly be included. Often plans and decisions cannot or should not only rely on the few available hard facts. So including emotional factors, image-creating features or other non-measurable aspects becomes important.

Logic MindGuide uses a process of 4 phases to flexibly structure the situation, requirements and solution possiblities:

  1. WHO are the relevant interest groups and stakeholders?
  2. WHAT is the demand and the restrictions coming from these stakeholders?
  3. HOW can the demand be fulfilled?
  4. Decision making and construction of argumentations by using the connected and rated data from steps 1-3.

The idea is to successively collect all relevant information and structure it using MindMaps and Trees in the steps 1-3. This also includes qualitative rating the identified stakeholders, demands and solution ideas. Connecting all that data, it finally becomes possible to find the best alternatives and argue in detail about them. This means that answering questions like "Why is one solution a good one" and "For whom is that solution a good one?" is instantly possible.

In important projects, it is often desirable to check out certain areas in more detail. Logic MindGuide thus contains a number of optional analysis steps:

  1. Scenarios: Check out various scenarios about the future.
  2. Kano Model: What are requirements that can generate excitement?
  3. Price and cost analysis: Which requirements are important for the achievable market price?
  4. Difficulty and suitability analysis

Having access to a specially designed software that supports the methodical process also means that it becomes possible to quickly solve even complex tasks and enjoy helpful features like an automatic documentation.
