Systems Development Life Cycle BSA/376 August 25‚ 2014 Deborah Marshall Systems Development Life Cycle A systems development life cycle (SDLC) is a tool for managing and controlling a project (Satzinger‚ Jackson & Burd‚ 2009). A manager uses an SDLC by following a series of steps‚ tools‚ techniques and several methodologies to decide on what approach will be used. It is important for any organization to understand and utilize a formal SDLC when working with an information system. The SDLC

Introduction System development methodologies are promoted as a means of improving the management and control of the software development process‚ structuring and simplifying the process‚ and standardizing the development process and product by specifying activities to be done and techniques to be used. It is often tacitly assumed that the use of a system development methodology will improve system development productivity and quality. However‚ there is little empirical evidence to support this

Systems Development Life Cycle • Project planning: Establishes a high-level view of the intended project and determines its goals. The importance of the planning stage is to determine what technologies exist or can be developed to solve the problem that has been identified. An economic feasibility analysis is used to determine if an organization can afford the system and if the system will provide a return on the investment. An operational feasibility analysis examines the human element of the

And to effectively manage risk‚ it is important that definitions of the risk management plan objectives are clear from the start‚ so that the plan can head in the right direction. Risk management of information assets also provides a strong basis for

Introduction Software systems development is‚ from a historical perspective‚ a very young profession. The first official programmer is probably Grace Hopper‚ working for the Navy in the mid-1940s. More realistically‚ commercial applications development did not really take off until the early 1960s. These initial efforts are marked by a craftsman-like approach based on what intuitively felt right. Unfortunately‚ too many programmers had poor intuition. By the late 1960s it had become apparent

There is no going back once a phase is completed. Iteration across Life Cycle Models Iteration means that the work tasks are done once‚ then again‚ and

Systems Development Life Cycle The term systems development life cycle (SDLC) is used to indicate traditional development methods which are used by organizations on large-scale IT projects. There is a structural framework in SDLC comprised of processes that are executed in sequence during the development of information systems. Step one involves a feasibility study for the product. During this step‚ the software analyst’s job is to work with strategy makers to establish
