1. Feasibility Analysis

Formulate Goals of the system and quantify them. Find alternative methods of meeting the goals and for each alternative assess resources needed like Human Resources, Time and Money, Equipment needed etc. Assess cost of each alternative and find the best alternative

2. Final Specifications

Specifications would state what the system would achieve. Specifications drawn up are then improved for implementation. SRS is written, which is then given to user and agreement is reached

3. Hardware Study

Determine Hardware and Software required to execute the application. Determine Response time, Volume of data to be processed, Frequency of reports etc & then pick the hardware.

4. System Design

A logical Design of the System is implemented. Objects are identified, Database is designed, and program specification and implementation plan is drawn up.

5. System Implementation

In this phase programs are written, Database is created, user operational document is created, users are trained and the system is tested with operational data

6. System Evaluation

Find out from Users whether the System meets the specified requirements. List areas of dissatisfaction and find reasons, suggest if there has to be any improvements to the system

7. System Modification

Fix the errors, add/delete features as required by users, tune the system and continuously monitor system and assess performance.
