"The SDLC is really a project management tool or a way of sequencing the tasks that need to be carried out to develop a new information system. the investigation phase results in the requirements of the new system coming to light the analysis phase sees the detailed investigation of the existing system the design phase sees the new system designed to meet the requirements that came to light in the investigation phase. the new system is brought on line during the implementation phase finally, the new system is examined for its effectiveness during the review phase If the problem exist with the new system then the entire process or part thereof may have to be repeated – hence the term life cycle"

"In general, an SDLC methodology follows the following steps: The existing system is evaluated. Deficiencies are identified. This can be done by interviewing users of the system and consulting with support personnel. The new system requirements are defined. In particular, the deficiencies in the existing system must be addressed with specific proposals for improvement. The proposed system is designed. Plans are laid out concerning the physical construction, hardware, operating systems, programming, communications, and security issues. The new system is developed. The new components and programs must be obtained and installed. Users of the system must be trained in its use, and all aspects of performance must be tested. If necessary, adjustments must be made at this stage. The system is put into use. This can be done in various ways. The new system can phased in, according to application or location, and the old system gradually replaced. In some cases, it may be more cost-effective to shut down the old system and implement the new system all at once. Once the new system is up and running for a while, it should be exhaustively evaluated. Maintenance must be kept up rigorously at all times. Users of the system should be kept up-to-date concerning the latest modifications and procedures"
