Audit an existing design system for gaps and issues
Design system: [describe what currently exists — components, documentation, tools]
Team using it: [designers, developers, or both]
Main problems: [inconsistency, outdated components, poor documentation, low adoption, etc.]
Conduct a design system audit:
1. Coverage: what is in the system vs. what is being built outside it?
2. Consistency: do components follow consistent naming, spacing, and visual rules?
3. Documentation quality: is it complete, accurate, and easy to use?
4. Adoption: which components are used vs. ignored and why?
5. Debt inventory: what is broken, outdated, or needs to be rebuilt?
6. Missing components: what gets rebuilt from scratch each project?
7. Priority action plan: top 5 improvements ranked by impact
8. Governance recommendation: how should this system be maintained?
