• Projects are unique 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.

• Projects that adhere 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.

• Well-defined 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.

• Agile systems 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.

• After consideration of your proposal from Week 1,
  the WeLoveVideo, Inc. CIO is having a hard time
  envisioning how the project would be executed
  based on your recommendations. She has asked your
  company to develop a project plan in both
  waterfall and Agile so she can better understand
  the implications to her team.

• 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.

• 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 a customer using an ATM might
  be, As a customer of the bank, I need to be able
  to access my account from an ATM to understand
  balances across all of my accounts.

•  
• 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.

• Implementing a new system, or modifying an
  existing one, can create organizational change.
  This change can impact how employees work, how
  information technology teams support the
  business, and even how customers interact with
  the organization.

• Waterfall projects may dictate a different
  approach and rigor surrounding design when
  compared to Agile.
•  
• Consider the phases associated with both
  waterfall and Agile. How you would approach
  design for a new project, based off each of these
  SDLC approaches? Consider User Experience Design
  and Bottom Up Design approaches. Provide an
  example of a project (either from your experience
  or one you read about) and explain what documents
  you would produce, why, and how that would affect
  future phases of the project.

• 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.

• Something that is 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.

• When developing new 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.

• Building a new software application is just the
  start, as organizations invest in software to
  help solve business problems. For systems to be
  effective and have a positive influence on
  organizational goals, they need to address user
  experience and focus on how best to gain new
  system adoption. The ideas for a new strategy are
  compiled in a document titled a change management
  plan.

  current organizations to manage systems
  development projects. Consider the past 6 weeks,
  and list your predictions on how current trends
  will influence software development in the next
  10 years. Cite readings, videos, or assignments

• Your implementation was successful, and its time
  to plan ahead for 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.
