5 Project Development Cycle

The project development life cycle consists of five phases: planning, analysis, design, implementation, and maintenance & operation. Each phase involves specific activities such as collecting requirements, analyzing system needs, designing the system architecture, and implementing the solution through user training and system installation. This structured approach ensures that projects are effectively managed from conception to completion.

PROJECT DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE
Maintenance Planning

Implementation Analysis

Design
The project development life cycle consists of 5 phases, planning, analysis,
design, implementation, and maintenance & operation.
PLANNING
Planning – this phase begins after the project has been defined and
appropriate resources have been committed.
• The first part of this phase involves collecting, defining and validating
functional, support and training requirements.
• The second portion is developing initial life cycle management plans,
including project planning, project management, Configuration
Management (CM), support, operations, and training management.
We cannot just go and build the system.
ANALYSIS

Analysis – system requirements are studied and structured in this phase.


• System analysts collect facts from existing system users in order to develop
limitations and details. They will also define new system objectives.
• They use different data gathering techniques such as interviews,
observations and surveys.
• This is an attempt to understand all aspects of the current system and
eventually indicate how things may be improved by a new system.
DESIGN
Design – Describes how the system will fulfil the user requirements.
• To achieve this, logical and physical design must be created.
• The logical design produced during the analysis is turned into a physical
design – a detailed description of what is needed to solve original problem.
• Input, output, databases, forms, codification schemes and processing
specifications are drawn up in detail.
DESIGN
• In the design stage, the programming language and the hardware and
software platform in which the new system will run are also decided.
• Data structure, control process, equipment source, workload and limitation
of the system, Interface, documentation, training, procedures of using the
system, taking backups and staffing requirement are decided at this stage.
IMPLEMENTATION
Implementation: This is followed by testing and then implementation.
• During this phase, the new or enhanced system is installed in the production
environment, users are trained, data is converted, the system is turned over to the
sponsor, and business processes are evaluated.
• This stage includes efforts required to implement, resolve system problems
identified during the implementation process, and plan for sustainment Coding.
• The physical design specifications are turned into working computer code.
• Integration and Testing– a testing environment is created where all components
are brought together.
IMPLEMENTATION
implementation : After having the user acceptance of the new system developed,
the implementation phase arises.
• Implementation is the stage of a project during which theory is turned into
practice.
• The major steps involved in this phase are:
Acquisition and Installation of Hardware and Software
Conversion
User Training
Documentation
