@Shi Kai All Rights ReservedBusiness Scenario Background
Describe the current business context and situation. What is the current state? What business processes or activities are involved?
User Pain Points and Expectations
Identify specific pain points users face and their expectations. What problems need to be solved? What improvements do users expect?
Measurement Metrics
Define key performance indicators (KPIs) and success metrics. How will success be measured? What metrics will track progress?
Challenges and Obstacles
Identify potential challenges, risks, and obstacles. What barriers might prevent success? What resistance might be encountered?
Business Goals and Value
Define the business objectives and expected value outcomes for this scenario. What business goals does this scenario support? What value metrics will be achieved?
User Persona
Identify the target users and stakeholders. Who are the primary users? What are their roles, responsibilities, and characteristics?
Solutions
Propose specific solutions and approaches. What solutions address the pain points? How will the scenario be implemented?
Data Assets
Identify required data assets and resources. What data is needed? What data assets are available or need to be created?
Digital Technology
Specify digital technologies and tools. What technologies will be used? What platforms or systems are required?
Supporting Measures
Define organizational and process support. What organizational changes are needed? What processes or policies must be established?
How to Use
Fill out each section of the canvas systematically, starting from business goals and user personas, then exploring pain points and solutions. The canvas serves as both a planning tool and a communication medium for cross-functional teams.
