ITERATIVE WATERFALL DEVELOPMENT

In today's rapidly evolving technological environment, Iterative Waterfall Development merges the structured nature of traditional waterfall models with the flexibility of iterative processes, making it particularly advantageous for SOP Automation Development. This methodology enhances product quality by facilitating early requirement identification and incorporating client feedback, leading to higher user acceptance and real-time adaptability to changing conditions. By prioritizing collaboration and continuous improvement, Iterative Waterfall Development not only streamlines the development process but also fosters innovation and responsiveness in operational strategies, ultimately driving success in organizations.

Benefits of Iterative Waterfall Development:

  1. Enhanced Product Quality: Iterative Waterfall Development ensures a higher-quality final product by facilitating early identification of additional/changing requirements and immediately incorporating client feedback into the development process.

  2. Higher User Acceptance: This methodology fosters a collaborative development process, leading to greater user buy-in and acceptance of the final product.

  3. Real-Time Adaptability: The flexibility within the development phases allows for real-time adjustments to changing requirements and market conditions.

  4. Reduced Time-to-Market: By incorporating user feedback and user acceptance testing throughout the development process, this approach accelerates time-to-market.

 

SOP Automations Development Phases:

  1. Process Definition(s): Define business processes, analyze current process challenges, and establish project success criteria.

  2. Process Flow Modeling: Develop visual process flow diagrams and define process flow requirements.

  3. Board Architecture Design: Define data elements, board design, and inter-board integration requirements.

  4. User Interface Design: Define user interfaces, including input forms, data views, and dashboard widgets.

  5. Integration Design: Define integration requirements of external applications.

  6. Automation Rules Design: Define automation rules to trigger automated actions based on predefined conditions within the workflow process. This includes status reporting, alerts, escalations, event and time-based processes, dependent processes, and data validation.

  7. Reporting / Analytics Design: Define user and data reporting requirements, including data views and management dashboards for tracking key process milestones.

  8. Acceptance Testing: Create detailed testing plans and perform thorough testing, encompassing unit testing, integration testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT).

  9. End User Training: Design role-based training programs that include user process tutorials (in the form of documentation and/or videos) alongside practical, hands-on training sessions.

  10. Deployment: Deploy the workflow process application into production.

  11. Continuous Improvement: Gather continuous feedback on changing requirements, analyze process performance, and refine/optimize workflow processes.

​

Scalable and Customizable:
