Loan Application Process Flow

All arriving input loan application forms (hereafter forms) to a process undergo a task T1 (3 minutes) performed by Staff A. The forms after the task T1 is separated into two parts Ia, Ib. Staff B performs T2 (2 minutes) on Ia and Staff C performs task T3 (4 minutes) on Ib. After T2 and T3, Ia and Ib are joined and goes through task T4 which can be performed either by Staff D or Staff E. Staff D takes 5 minutes while Staff E takes 4minutes to perform task T4. After T4, the input is again re-separated into Ia and Ib. Staff F performs T5 (2 minutes) on Ia and Staff G performs task T6 (5 minutes) on Ib. After T5 and T6, Ia and Ib are joined and the combined form leaves the process.
