Service Blueprint Workshop
Service blueprint is a visualisation of the whole service.
About Service Blueprint
Service blueprint is a visualisation of the whole service. In one comprehensive diagram, we present the customer's actions, their interactions with the service across all channels, internal interactions, and supporting actions.
It shows processes and interdependencies between all components involved in service delivery.
What is different about this template?
It is easy to scale - I noticed that there are already some templates for a service blueprint in the Miroverse. Don't get me wrong - they are all really cool. But I needed something that can be applied to a big, complicated process - thus it had to be easy to scale. I have used a table function in my template so that you can easily adjust the length of a process phase and height of a row if i.e. you want to add another streamline, like specific technology.
It is a workshop - I saw a lot of templates for the Service Blueprint itself but not a lot for the whole workshop that leads to this Service Blueprint creation. This is my proposition on how you can approach such workshop. I've added tips and some context.
Who is it for?
Everyone who wants to facilitate a Service Blueprint Workshop. But notice that I do not explain every step. I assume that you already know the concept and you are familiar with basic Service Blueprint structure. If you want to learn more I strongly recommend this article as a start: Norman Nielsen Group.

For a design to be successful, let alone to be great, design agencies and teams have to know the project’s goals, timelines, budget, and scope. In other words, design takes a strategic process—and that starts with a design brief. This helpful template will empower you to create a brief that builds alignment and clear communication between your business and your design agency. It’s the foundation of any creative project, and a single source of truth that teams can refer to all along the way.
Research Template
Works best for:
Education, Desk Research, Product Management
Teams often need to document findings from usability testing sessions and customer interviews into a systematic, flexible user research template. Collecting everyone’s observations into a centralized location makes it easier to share insights company-wide and suggest new features based on user needs. Research templates can be used to record quantitative or qualitative data.. When it’s your job to ask questions, take notes, learn more about your user, and test iteratively, a Research Template can help you validate your assumptions, find similarities across different users, and articulate their mental models, needs, and goals.

When you're working with others, you might encounter situations where there's too much information to handle, or you're unsure about the direction to take. In such cases, using the Cluster Analysis Template can be helpful. It allows you to group similar items together and make sense of them, whether feedback or creative ideas. This method is straightforward and provides clarity amidst confusion.
