    Area of Science:

    • Computer Science
    • Information Technology Management

    Background:

    • System acquisition and development are complex undertakings.
    • Often viewed as discrete events rather than ongoing processes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To delineate the benefits of viewing computer system development as a process.
    • To identify and discuss the inherent pitfalls in this approach.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative analysis of system development lifecycles.
    • Review of case studies and best practices in IT project management.

    Main Results:

    • System development yields greater benefits when treated as an iterative process.
    • Common pitfalls include scope creep, inadequate planning, and resistance to change.

    Conclusions:

    • Adopting a process-oriented approach enhances computer system success.
    • Proactive management of identified pitfalls is essential for mitigating risks.
