<strong>NEDSS</strong> Phase II, Deliverables 1 and 2<br />
V. Technical Process Plans<br />
Process Model<br />
The process model for this project is outlined in the project plan attached (see Appendix).<br />
Though not all phase tasks flow in a sequential format, the overall flow is from top to bottom, or<br />
Planning to Requirements to Design to Build to Test to Implement to Review.<br />
Several of the phases have appropriate review and revision tasks, which allow the appropriate<br />
stakeholders to be updated on the project status and allow for minor project adjustments.<br />
Methods, Tools and Techniques<br />
This project will utilize only established engineering methodologies (e.g. IEEE standards) and<br />
tools. The specific programming tools will be determined when the <strong>NEDSS</strong> Base system is<br />
released. All other standards will be determined at the appropriate time after consultation with<br />
CDC and DoTS technical resources for compatibility within the respective environments.<br />
Infrastructure<br />
The technical infrastructure is dependant on the established standards within BOH, DoTS and<br />
those that are required by <strong>NEDSS</strong>. What will need to be determined during the associated<br />
phases (i.e. Build, Test and Implement) are as follows:<br />
• Hardware, operating system, network and software<br />
• Policies, procedures, standards, and facilities<br />
• Workstations, local area networks, software tools for analysis, design implementations,<br />
testing, and project management,<br />
• Desks, office space, etc.<br />
Implementation Acceptance<br />
Once the final system specifications are determined (Requirements Traceability Matrix), the<br />
criteria for both technical and user (stakeholder) deliverable acceptance is established. The<br />
Traceability Matrix will list every key function point of the system and how it is measured.<br />
Once the project sponsors and key stakeholders have signed off this document, the appropriate<br />
standards are in place to determine (measure) the status of the deliverables.<br />
