So, if anyone wants to make diagramming software and is looking for a niche, there's something used in quality improvement called a "driver diagram".
These are very simple.

The problem is that you want something that a small team can collaborate on; that allows them to control where it's stored and viewable; that works with baffling NHS bureaucracy; and is very easy to use. You want something that allows actions to be attached and completed. And you might want to allow it to link to other documents. (For example, "we tried change idea 1, and we didn't see any improvement, here's the data").
The other problem is that most software will apply colour vertically to a column, but you probably don't want that. You want something that allows horizontal stripes.

There's something called LifeQI which is good but a bit spendy and it covers a lot more detail than just driver diagrams.
