The third element of this triple model is an extra phase for \u2018diagnosing\u2019, based on a reasoning that it is important to spend prolonged time on understanding and \u2018diagnosing\u2019 the problem at hand.

However, while these models may be suitable for clearly demarcated projects, addressing specific problems that can be relatively clearly defined, many projects in the public service context are complex and intertwined with processes and decisions at other government levels or in other organisations and agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the process models for service design, with clearly defined phases appearing in sequence, will often not be applicable in comprehensive and complex projects. The process models can still be helpful as a kind of mental map and as a starting point for reflections on how to plan, organise and structure a design process. Indeed, the process models can be helpful because they highlight key elements to include in a design process, even though these elements may not appear in a neat sequence. Particularly, the models can be helpful because they underscore the importance of keeping processes open and explorative and of avoiding jumping to solutions too fast.<\/p>\n<p>Following the process models in a strictly structured manner may imply that it becomes a straitjacket that limits rather than supports the process. It can be important to keep in mind that design and innovation processes tend to follow unpredictable paths, but this does not mean that a plan or a process model is unnecessary. Hence, agreeing on a plan for the process, but also discussing how to relate to the plan and the possibilities for deviation, is a wise way of getting started.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;4\/6&#8243;][vc_column_text]Textbooks and practical guides on service design often present process models consisting of sequential steps that can be used to guide the design process.
