Workflow Analysis - 1st Prize Winner
Overview
Great organizations manage their workflows efficiently. When the core operations of an organization are clearly defined and run with care, the organization runs smoothly and can focus on bigger problems than storing data and fetching reports.
The visibility of the work that comes with workflow management tends to lead to awareness of how to improve these workflows. Business process improvement is a natural part of workflow management.
The real problem today is a lack of efficient systems to support within and across team collaborations. Sigma-Thon 2.0 is back with another series of Hackathon to solution for everyday business problems.
We invite all developers globally to register and engineer data models & architectures that identify a workflow pattern, recommend actions, track issues, analyze trends, and derive actionable insights using BI reports.
Themes
Guidelines for building your prototype solution:
- The following fields are mandatory at the time of submission:
- Detailed description of the solution
- Updates prototype submission template - Click here to download the template
- Source code
Workflow Analysis
Workflow collaboration between teams is crucial in every organization. Every team works on different projects that are interrelated, thereby connecting multiple teams to a single product roadmap.There are multiple workflow tools like Jira, Trello, Zoho, etc. Multiple reports are available at individual team levels that can be analysed for project-level and department-level analytics.
Task:
- [Minimum] : Analyse user behaviour data [time spent on each task, type of task done, spillovers, etc.] to: Recommend users for upcoming tasks, given the nature and priority of tasks
- [Intermediate] : Build a Business intelligence reporting (BI-report) that derives actionable insights from workflow reports at project level, team level and subsequent hierarchical levels. Reports can be about work utilization, delivery efficiency, etc.
- [Bonus] : Propose and design a scalable data architecture to store huge volumes of data
Resources
Workflow Template Generator
Identification and templatization of workflows requires manual efforts. You need to identify a workflow pattern, and pre-populate the project task description field with a template, by tracking and analysing issues, discussion threads and activity performed per issue. The pattern needs to be backed on frequency, duration, priority, etc. to be finalised into a workflow.
Task:
- [Minimum] : Use data modelling to identify a workflow pattern by analysing the frequency of an issue and corresponding activity
- [Intermediate] : Recommend actions to issue owner based on latest activity and discussion threads
- [Bonus points]: Self-learning recommendation system
Resources:
- Workflow : Getting started
- Jira Issue Template generator
- Sample of workflow templates
- Sample dataset
Note: You can use anonymised data and share along with source code (subject to guaranteed confidentiality by HackerEarth).
