Process Overview: The Double Diamond Framework

Current Phase: Define (Diamond 1) - Core User Flows Development

Project: Province AI Dashboard for Construction Pre-Construction Workflows

Date: September 2025

Building on Previous Work

From our completed Define phase work, I've identified the critical flows that cut across all personas and represent the core value proposition of the Province AI system. These flows will form the foundation of our low-fidelity MVP prototype.

Core Flow Strategy: "AI-Augmented Decision Making"

Based on our personas and IA research, the MVP should focus on the critical decision points where AI can provide the most value while building trust through transparency.

Primary Flows Identified:

  1. Project Setup & Scope Analysis Flow - Where AI first demonstrates value
  2. Subcontractor Discovery & Matching Flow - Core AI recommendation engine
  3. Decision Review & Approval Flow - Multi-stakeholder collaboration
  4. Mobile Field Verification Flow - Real-world validation and updates

Flow 1: Project Setup & Scope Analysis

User Goal: Get AI assistance in breaking down project scope and identifying trade requirements

Primary Persona: The Bid Whisperer (Estimator)

Secondary Users: Project Manager needs to understand the breakdown
