NOTE

Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC)

Systems development is a planned undertaking with a fixed beginning and end that produces the desired result or product. It may be a large job that involves many people working for a long period or it can also be a small assignment that one person can finish in a day.

The SDLC provides an overall formalised method for managing the systems development processes and activities. It represents a detailed and specific set of procedures, steps, and documents that are required for the development of an information system development.

The SDLC believes that the development of information systems should follow a structured and methodical way, requiring each stage of the life cycle from inception of the idea to delivery of the final system, to be carried out in rigid and sequential order.

The systems development life cycle is therefore the process of understanding how an information system (IS) can support the business needs of an organization, designing the system, building it and delivering it to the users.

 

Objectives of SDLC

  1. To ensure high quality systems are delivered.
  2. To provide strong controls over the system development
  3. To maximize the productivity of the systems staff
