Changes

Before entering the development process, DE-D will determine if an existing open source software exists that meet the business, technical and user requirements for the application. If none meet the requirements, DE-D will look into developing the new application, starting with an minimal viable product (MVP) where they will continue to iterate on the application to add additional features and functionalities.

During the proof of concept phase, DE-D will attempt to demonstrate the feasibility of a concept of product to verify if it has the potential of being used. DE-D will either test an open source software to see if it meets the initial requirements, or will test a newly developed Minimal Viable Product (MVP). If the concept of product successfully goes through the proof of concept phase, it will then enter the Alpha phase where the majority of the new development and design work for the new product will be completed. Once the initial necessary features are developed and tested in Alpha, the new tool will enter the Beta phase where at least 90% of the application is completed and is released to users as the Minimal Marketable Product (MMP). During the Beta phase, final bug fixes and enhancements required are addressed before the application is officially released.
