by nature, and organizations each have their own
specific needs when it comes to managing systems
projects. In addition, there is never a superior
SDLC methodology, but rather SDLCs that will fit
certain projects better than others.

to an Agile SDLC allow for iterative development,
leading to quicker results for customers.
However, many times the requirements you have at
the start of an Agile sprint differ from the
results you see at the end of the sprint.

business requirements are essential building
blocks to any system project. If requirements are
not written well, the input to design and
development phases will be poor. However,
well-written requirements will lead to a much
better project outcome in relation to stronger
designs and system solutions.

development provides organizations with an
iterative model, allowing for quicker, more
incremental results. However, an Agile SDLC is
also more flexible in terms of the comprehensive
project results, meaning stakeholders may have a
set of requirements going in that are reshaped
throughout the life of the project.

visit www.newtonhelp.com     When developing
system requirements, it is very important that
they be written in a way that will allow for
specific design and development steps. Poorly
written requirements may lead to ambiguity,
resulting in missing a stakeholders expectations.

visit www.newtonhelp.com     Depending on the
type of project and the SDLC applied, system
requirements may be developed differently. For
example, many current projects use the Agile
SDLC, and build requirements based on user-story
format. A user story is essentially a use case
that describes how a specific user would interact
with a system. An example of a user story tied to

m     As you learned in Week 2, requirements are
a fundamental component to any project. Depending
on the SDLC applied, requirements can be written
in different forms. For example, some
requirements will be very technically focused
(technical requirements) and are written in a
manner that dictates what a stakeholder expects
the system to accomplish. Another approach taken,
often with Agile-run projects, is to create a
user story. A user story focuses

system, or modifying an existing one, can create
organizational change. This change can impact how

support the business, and even how customers
interact with the organization.

m     The stakeholders at WeLoveVideo, Inc. are
interested in understanding what the CRM will
look like prior to development. There are a
variety of ways the project team can approach
design, some being more effective in terms of
giving the stakeholders a view into what the
final product will look like. Some of the
approaches include a storyboard and presentation.
The storyboard provides a visual display, while
the presentation provides the necessary
information.  Develop a proposal presentation of
how you will approach the design for the
WeLoveVideo, Inc. CRM project.

easy to overlook, but critical to the success of
a systems project, is the quality of the
development work. Testing needs to occur and is
generally based on the approved requirements and
design.

systems, teams tend to focus on understanding the
requirements of the system at the start of the
project. Until requirements are known, its hard
to understand design and development components.
Beyond this, testing is an essential part of any
systems project, no matter what SDLC is applied.

future projects. One important piece of project
reflection and creating future proposals is to
use customer success stories. These stories read
as case studies and provide internal and external
personnel a glimpse into the decisions made
throughout the project. It provides the
opportunity to highlight the goals, results, and
impacts of the project. Customer success stories
are also used to predict trends in future
projects.
