How about this for innovation:
As a TW, I creatively used Data Flow Diagrams to, in
about seven business days, rigorously define the scope
of a vary large-scale federal government software
project.
Prior analysis efforts, all $25 Million of it, had
failed to adequately produce this deliverable, even
though it was THE key to Congressional Budget Office
approval of many hundreds-of-millions of future
funding dollars for the project.
