The Importance of Business Process Analysis and Implementation in Software Development
...ht, until the business process analysis phase is complete, and the current model is agreed upon. Notwithstanding the fact that technology is constantly evolving, analysts and developers should always approach the analysis phase systematically and be considerate of the client when developing implementation plans Business process analysis is a series of events, which, regardless of the industry, is a key to success or failure in solution development. In fact, one of the leading contributors to success and failure of otherwise promising projects is incomplete business process analysis and ill-planned implementations. Strangely enough, business process analysis and implementation are often overlooked in software development, and more emphasis is placed on the processes that occur between them. This is dangerous for several reasons, which will be discussed in more detail. In the context of software development, the degree of precision to which the solution addresses the client’s needs and objectives is a direct result of how thorough and accurate the business process analysis is performed. The various methods currently available for software application development (-ie- Joint Application Development) should not be sought, until the business process analysis phase is complete, and the current model is agreed upon. Notwithstanding the fact that technology is constantly evolving, analysts and developers should always approach the analysis phase systematically and be considerate of the client when developing implementation plans. As mentioned, business process analysis is a vital determinant in evaluating the success of a solution and the scope of the problem, which it addresses. However, an effective approach and course of action should be taken. Typically, when an entity seeks a software solution, it is in response to ...
