This sounds a lot like The Bridge, a participatory analysis design and assessment (PANDA) technique developed at Bellcore by Tom Dayton, Joe Kramer and others. It’s focused on a participatory workshop in which a variety of stakeholders (business, users, experts) created three views, which they called something like Current, Blue Sky, and Real. It was intended for working on large object-oriented expert systems. The writeups are all pretty dry, but the actual sessions (at least the ones I saw) were much more lively and engaging.
