Challenge 

 I decided to take somewhat of a risk and write this assignment to explain the process   involved in creating a proposal for a Non - Profit Organisation . To apply for NGO status and   funding a well thought out and comprehensive proposal is needed . The current and   prospective suppliers / stakeholders are the directors of the company , the Department of   Health and SADAG ( The South African Depression and Anxiety Group ) . The customers are   companies , retirement homes , schools and community centres . 

 Selection 

 I chose to use ‘ Mind Mapping ” as a tool . In this proposal Company X , who currently is   involved in corporate events , saw a gap in the market to offer Health and Wellness services   to a large and diverse group . Mind mapping will be used to analyse available data , sort   through ideas and to approach ideas in a logical manner . 

 ( Please see the attached mind map ) 

 Application 

 I created a mind map using the design thinking tools ( what is , what if , what wows and what   works ) . At the end of this assignment the goal is to bring together the services of the   suppliers / stakeholders and the needs of the customers .   The information in the map is   colour - coded to see where the available information , needs and services overlap . As the   group is too large and too diverse for interviews I had to draw on existing data , i.e. statistics   to illustrate my points . ( Please see below for references ) 

 Company X identified and opportunity in the market . One of the main problems is funding .   This can be overcome if the proposal for funding is accepted . For this I provided proof   ( statistics ) that the needs of the potential customers and the services of the potential   suppliers / stakeholders overlap . 

 I drew on the information gathered to explore different ideas that could fulfil the needs as   seen in the statistics . These were then also colour - coded to show where they overlap with   the needs and services . The colour - coded ideas were then streamlined into a manageable   and working design that is ready to be tested . 

 Insight 

 With this assignment I learned the importance of using available data . Using the design tools   and mind mapping helped me to compartmentalize the information into easy to understand   units . It was also helpful to let me clearly see when an idea needed to go back on the shelf ,   such as when it does not overlap with any other ideas . Mind mapping helped me to take a   step back and see the information more clearly . 

 Approach 

 I found Mind Mapping the most logical way to approach this assignment . For this proposal I   wo n’t be using any of the other design tools , as this one I found the most comprehensive   when I have only data available to me and not customers and stakeholders for feedback .
