This document outlines the key components of an effective process description. A process description should answer who, what, when, where, why and how questions about the process. It describes the main steps in a process without instructing the reader. An introduction provides an overview and context while a conclusion may help readers recall or analyze key points. The goal is to clearly explain how something works through a logical sequence of events.
