Relationships
Work Responsibility- Work Flow
Relation
Description
When doing some work, everyone does it in a certain way and in

a certain order until the work is finished. If everyone works their
own way, it is possible that the work effectiveness differs, or
even incorrect operations bring losses. Therefore, it is necessary
to work out a work flow that can standardize the operators
behaviors so as to guarantee high work efficiency.
The work responsibility of the person who uses the document is
specified in the carrier management rules. And the work flow
corresponds to their work responsibilities one to one.
Work Flow
Design
The purpose of designing the work flow is to complete the work

in an optimized order so as to guarantee consistent work result
and the highest work efficiency.
The work flow is designed based on definite work responsibility.
The procedure to design a work flow is as follows:
1. Analyze post responsibility.
2. Partition the work procedure and work out several steps that
can bring about a certain result.
3. Peer review.
4. Verify the flow.
5. Determine and release the flow.
Note: Some trivial steps can be ignored sometimes when
designing the flow.
Work Flow User Document

Relation
Description
26
Every step in a work flow needs to be implemented by specific

personnel. The executors should have sufficient level of skills
and knowledge so as to implement each step. However, there
are no detailed implementing instructions inferred from the flow
itself.
Chapter 4 Reading Guide
Thus, in order for effective work, how to make sure the

implementations of each step in the work flow are correct?
Serving engineers at different posts, the user documents provide
guidance and reference information for the executors (usually
different kinds of engineers) to implement each step in the work
flow. By reading product manuals, the executors can improve
their skills and enhance their knowledge level. Therefore, the
work efficiency can be guaranteed.
There are so many user documents and so many work flows
which refer to even more implementation steps. Thus how to set
up a relationship between the project flow and the product
manual?
Work FlowUser Document
Relation
Design
As refer to the relationship between the work flow and the user
documents, simply speaking, the user documents provide direct
or
indirect
guidance
and
reference
information
for
implementation of each step in the work flow. A full
understanding of the relationship between the work flow and the
user document helps the readers to select pertinent document to
read so as to enhance their work efficiency.
The relationship between the project flow and the user
document can be designed in light of the work steps determined
in the work flow and based on the above-mentioned relationship.
The design procedure is as follows:
1. Analyze the required skills and knowledge level that should
be obtained by the person who implement each step.
2. Match user documents specifically with those executors so
that they can improve their skills and knowledge level.
Example
The following is an example, wherein user documents needed by

the maintenance engineers for handling common alarms will be
shown.

Note: The above flow only covers general operations of the

maintenance engineers. If the maintenance engineers for
handling that fault are very familiar with the product, it is
unnecessary for them to refer to any user documents.
It can be inferred from this flow that the maintenance engineers
can refer to one or several kinds of user documents during the
process of handling alarms. This flow clearly represents the
relationship between the user documents and the work flow.
As there are so many works and the work flow varies with
different posts, the readers need to design the relationship
between the work flow and the user documents starting from
those work flows, which they are familiar with, and get to learn
more about the documents and also preserve them well in order
for quick search at key time.

among NEs and among units in a NE. the relations are what
each equipment is based on to control NE running.
Data configured are very important. Once they are wrong, the
system can not work normally and even can not provide services.
Therefore data backup is needed as data configuration. The
backed up data can be used when it is necessary to ensure
system runs normally in a short time.
