What step follows the Process Definition Document (PDD) in the lifecycle of document creation?

In the lifecycle of document creation for a Blue Prism project, the step that follows the Process Definition Document (PDD) is the Solution Design Document (SDD). The PDD outlines the business processes and functional requirements necessary for the automation project. After stakeholders have reviewed and approved the PDD, the next logical step is to translate those requirements into a more detailed technical format, which is captured in the SDD.

The SDD provides a comprehensive overview of how the processes described in the PDD will be implemented within the Blue Prism environment. It typically includes technical specifications, design considerations, workflow diagrams, and any necessary integration points. This document serves as a crucial blueprint for developers to follow when building the automation solution, ensuring alignment between the design and the original business requirements established in the PDD.

The focus at this stage is on translating the high-level concepts contained within the PDD into actionable design elements that can be executed during development.
