Project Management
At Wiztech Inc., we adopt the Spiral Progressive Approach to deliver a project.
The salient features of this approach are:
- It follows an Iterative Development model
- Development phases are revisited with a feedback loop from forward stages at the end of each critical milestone.
- At one particular time, all disciplines of each project is active.
- The active percentages of each discipline are different, depending upon what phase we are currently focusing. This is equivalent to saying that at one particular time we will doing.
a% requirements, b% design, c% construction, d% deployment.
The main benefit of this approach is that the customer can always see how the project is shaping up, not like a waterfall approach where a customer sees projects only after one phase is complete. This process reduces the time needed to make corrections.
