Maybe the worst approval process ever

Can you guess what this diagram describes? Is it:

A) The blueprint for building a top-secret new generation of predator drones.

B) The process for completely revamping a major manufacturing company’s supply chain system.

C) A map for navigating Obamacare

D) The approval process for an organization’s employee publication.

If you answered, D, you’re right! And the funny part is, this is the SIMPLIFIED version of the process! This is the version that the communicator actually came up with when she tried to simplify the existing process!! She asked if we wanted to see a diagram of the original process, and we declined. We’re pretty sure it would make our heads explode.
