JOINT APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT Presentation Transcript:
1.JOINT APPLICATION Development(JAD)
2.What?
Joint Application Development, or JAD, is a process originally developed for designing a computer-based system.
JAD is a technique that allows the developers, managers, IT Professionals and end users to work together to build a product.
It is a series of highly structured interviewed
sessions and is aimed to achieve project’s goal.
3.JAD Scope
The JAD should cover the complete development life cycle of a system.
The JAD is usually a 3 to 6 month well-defined project.
For large-scale projects, it is recommended that the project be approached incrementally, and that separate JAD's be used for each increment.
4.Why?
JAD reduces the amount of time required to develop systems since it eliminates process delays and misunderstandings and improves system quality.
It also improves the quality of the final product by focusing on the up-front portion of the development lifecycle, thus reducing the likelihood of errors.
5.How?
JAD centers around a structured workshop session.
Participants get together in a room to discuss the problem/project.
Everyone hears what the rest of the group has to say.
6.JAD Structure
They are less frequent
More structured, and productive
An agenda provides the structure
The facilitator directs the process
Visual aids clarify concepts being discussed and the group dynamics, with constant feedback, stimulates creativity
7..
JAD participants
Project sponsor
Project lead
Facilitator

End users
Developers
Observers
Subject matter experts
8.JAD Process Steps
1. Define Session: Define the purpose, scope, and objectives of the JAD session, selecting the JAD team. 2. Research Product: Become more familiar with the product or service, gather preliminary information, obtaining any models.
3. Prepare: Prepare any visual aids, developing a realistic agenda, training the recorder, and preparing the meeting room.
4. Conduct Session: Follow agenda to gather and document the project needs and requirements.
5. Draft the Documents: Prepare the formal documents.
9.Pitfalls
Sponsor not really committed - no resources
Unclear goals or objectives - lack of direction
Too many or too few members
Not enough communication with outsiders affected by decisions
Timelines aren't kept
Meetings aren't well facilitated
1 or 2 members dominate discussions
10.BENEFITS OF JADEnhanced communication and relationship between business end users and IT personnel
Build consensus and ownership
Reduced system cost and development time
Reduced function creep
Improved system quality and productivity
Design cross-functional solutions
Helps project teams get focused and stay focused
Helps you get the right job done at the right time!
