@FranECross @aklausmeier (cc @thejordanwood) Discharge Upgrade Wizard collab cycle ticket here is recommending some touchpoints we need to figure out / maybe talk to Governance folks about:

  1. Design Intent: We're using the DS subtask pattern the same way we did for Income Limits and PACT Act wizards, and we don't have a design artifact other than our user flow for that reason. So: we likely need to talk to Governance folks about what's required here from their perspective.
  2. Research review: Same. We aren't currently planning to run research, because we're moving from a deprecated pattern to a DS pattern.
  3. Midpoint: Same. We won't have any additional artifacts for this touchpoint. I think we might be able to propose skipping Design Intent and Research Review, and jump right to requesting an async Midpoint.

Thoughts?

FranECross commented 2 months ago

@coforma-terry I'm not sure how or who to approach regarding Jill's points above. Would I just note things in the ticket in the appropriate sections as to why we believe that particular review wouldn't be relevant/the info we have would be sufficient, and then do the async when I request a midpoint review? Thanks in advance for your guidance!

jilladams commented 2 months ago

@shiragoodman ^^ These might also be questions for you.

shiragoodman commented 2 months ago

@FranECross @jilladams Both the Design Intent and Midpoint Review are optional touchpoints, so if you'd like to skip them for any reason, you're welcome to. The Research Review is only required if you're planning to do research with Veterans or if you're doing any experimental design. We won't allow proposed component changes/uses to be published to VA.gov unless the solution has been tested. LMK if you have any other questions.
