Annabelle and Garth,
As your project manager I would like to talk to you about
what I believe the best approach is. Remember the Waterfall Lifecycle approach I spoke
about earlier? If you look at the
picture below, you can see that the entire lifecycle includes: Analysis and design,
Programming, implementation, regular use, and requires replacement. This is a good baseline for us to start digging into system requirements.
This picture shows what a typical waterfall model would
look like. The reason I really like this
approach is because it gives you the opportunity to sign off on each step. For example the waterfall approach makes sure
ALL requirements are documented. Once we
finish project initiation, you’ll be able to look over what we have
accomplished and it must be signed off with your stamp of approval before
proceeding.
