Service Blueprint by Liz Possee Corthell
Welcome to my Service Blueprint Template, designed to help you visualize and optimize the entire service process.
This template is an essential tool for service designers, managers, and teams aiming to enhance customer experience and streamline service delivery.
In this template you'll find areas to map your team's:
Persona: Who is going on this particular journey and using this service at this time? This section will allow you to consider your user, and key factors that put them on their journey with your service.
User journey: Track every step your customers take, from initial contact through to the completion of the service. This section helps you understand the customer journey from their perspective.
User feelings and actions: Track what your users are thinking and feeling through their journey. This section should ideally be filled in with verbatims from your user research so that you can visualize real findings alongside your journey.
Interactions: Detail the interactions and activities that occur directly between service staff and customers. This includes face-to-face communications, phone calls, digital interactions, and more.
Challenges and Opportunities: Map user's frustrations, challenges, or pain points while interacting with your service, and the opportunities to improve these pain points.
Backend Systems: Outline the internal processes and actions that support the user's journey but are invisible to customers.
Support Processes: Identify the systems and processes that underpin both user's journey, and the backend systems to ensure smooth service delivery.
Benefits:
Enhanced Clarity: Visualize the relationships and dependencies across different components of the service process.
Improved Efficiency: Identify redundancies and gaps in the service process, allowing for more streamlined operations.
Better User Experience: Understand and improve the user's journey by refining interactions and eliminating pain points.
Usage:
This template is versatile and can be adapted to a wide range of services, from retail and hospitality to healthcare and education. Simply fill in each section with details specific to your service to create a comprehensive overview of your service delivery process. To start, you'll find the first two columns filled out mapping Kayla's journey to set up an appointment with her new primary care physician, to show you how to use each of the rows.

Swimlane Diagram Template
Works best for:
Flowcharts, Diagrams, Workflows
A swimlane diagram shows you which stakeholders are responsible for each area of your critical processes. You can use it to understand current processes or plan new ones.
Action Priority Matrix Template
Works best for:
Mapping
You and your teammates probably have more ideas than resources, which can make it difficult to prioritize tasks. Use an Action Priority Matrix to help choose the order in which you will work on your tasks, allowing you to save time and money and avoid getting bogged down in unnecessary work. An Action Priority Matrix is a simple diagram that allows you to score tasks based on their impact and the effort needed to complete them. You use your scores to plot each task in one of four quadrants: quick wins, major projects, fill-ins, and thankless tasks.
Simple Quarterly Product Roadmap
Works best for:
Roadmap, Planning, Mapping
Plan your product development with the Quarterly Product Roadmap template. This tool helps you outline key objectives and tasks for each quarter. Use it to set clear priorities, align your team, and track progress over time. Ideal for product managers and teams aiming to maintain focus and achieve quarterly goals. Simplify your planning process and ensure everyone is on the same page with this easy-to-use roadmap template.
T-Chart Template
Works best for:
Ideation, Operations, Strategic Planning
T-Charts can help you compare and contrast two different ideas, group information into different categories, and prove a change through “before” and “after” analysis. T-Charts are visual organizational tools that enable you to compare ideas, so you can evaluate pros and cons, facts and opinions, strengths and weaknesses, or big-picture views versus specific details. Designers and content creators can use T-Charts to turn possibilities into actionable ideas. T-Charts are useful for discussing differences and similarities with your team or clients and can help you to reach a decision together.
666 Roadmap Template
Works best for:
Strategic Planning, Product Management
For most companies, especially startups, it’s important to keep two perspectives in mind when planning for the future: your plan and your vision. Your plan is a close-up view of what you want to accomplish in the near future, while your vision provides a zoomed-out view of what you hope to accomplish in the long term. The 666 Roadmap encourages you to plan for the future by thinking about the next 6 years, 6 months, and 6 weeks. Use this roadmap to strategize, think about what you want to build, and focus on a concrete plan for the upcoming quarter.
