Define project goals
What are the main objectives of the project? Why is it important? What are the desired outcomes? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What tools or resources are needed?
Identify key stakeholders
Who are the key individuals or groups that have an interest in or will be affected by this project? Why are they important? What information or input do we need from them? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? Who should be involved in engaging with them?
Determine project scope
What is the overall scope of the project? What are the boundaries and limitations? What activities or deliverables are included or excluded? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What information or input do we need to define the project scope?
Develop initial project requirements
What are the initial requirements for the project? What features or functionalities should be included? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What information or input do we need to develop the project requirements?
Build initial prototype
Create an initial prototype of the system. What tools or resources will be needed? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What elements should be included in the prototype? What information or input do we need to build the prototype?
Approval: Initial Prototype
Will be submitted for approval:
Build initial prototype
Will be submitted
Conduct user testing of prototype
Test the prototype with end users to gather feedback. How will the testing be conducted? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What feedback are we looking for? What information or input do we need to conduct user testing?
Gather feedback from key stakeholders
Collect feedback from the key stakeholders on the prototype. How will the feedback be gathered? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What specific feedback are we looking for? What information or input do we need to gather feedback?
Revise and enhance the prototype based on feedback
Make revisions and improvements to the prototype based on the feedback received. What changes or enhancements should be made? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What elements or features need to be revised?
Test revised prototype
Test the revised prototype to ensure that the changes and enhancements have been implemented correctly. What testing methods will be used? What challenges might arise and how can they be addressed? What specific aspects or features should be tested?
