SDLC methodology has the
following main stages:
1. Assess needs, opportunities
and issues.
The existing system is evaluated. Deficiencies are identified. This can
be done by interviewing users of the system and consulting with support
personnel.
2. Define functional and
performance specifications for the new system.
The new system requirements are defined. Deficiencies in the existing
system should be addressed along with proposals for improvement.
3. Design/Develop/Test
Software for Systems Integration
The proposed system is designed. Plans are prepared for the logical and
physical construction, hardware, operating systems, programming,
communications, training, and security issues.
The new system is developed. The new components and programs
must be obtained, installed and integrated. System users must be
trained. All aspects of performance must be tested.
4. Support Program
Implementation
The system is put into use. The new system is phased in, according to
application or location, and the old system is phased out.
5. Support Operations
System performance is monitored; tuning and synchronization are
performed. Users and help desk calls are observed; Procedures are
changed and supplementary training is conducted, as needed. Changes are
recommended via the Change Control Authority.
6. Evaluate/assess program
performance
Once the new system is up and running for a while, it should be
exhaustively evaluated. Maintenance must be kept up rigorously at all
times. Users of the system should be kept up-to-date concerning the
latest modifications and procedures. |
