Diogenes, a process for identifying unintended consequences

Individuals, companies, and even governments often create procedures, processes, or products that solve a particular problem, only to discover that their solution has created a second problem, worse than the first. These secondary problems are called unintended consequences. Searching for unintended consequences, as a part of the development process, will likely increase safety, reduce financial risk, and improve customer satisfaction. This paper contains the design for a new process, named Diogenes, that will help systems engineers identify unintended, but foreseeable, consequences of a new system that is being designed. It contains the required behavior (functions), use cases, design diagrams, the test procedure, validation, and verification for Diogenes.
