Soviet Design - wish I had said that!
Peter Van Dijck in Ease uses the term "Sovjet Design (Soviet Design)". I love that term!!
There is an additional point. Process-centeredness is based on a mechanistic view of the world that holds, at its worst, that the skills of the individuals involved in the work doesn't matter so long as "they follow the process". It is frequently the result of over-internalizing the lessons learned from past problems (otherwise known as fighting the last war). Excellence in any endeavor is rarely the result of unskilled or moderately skilled people looking hard in the rear-view mirror.
