Development Approach

The selected way to build and progressively enhance the product, service, or result across the project life cycle, such as using predictive, iterative, incremental, agile, or a hybrid mix.

Key Points

  • Defines how work is planned, executed, and adapted to create the deliverable.
  • Can be predictive, iterative, incremental, agile, or a hybrid tailored to context.
  • Influences scope planning, scheduling, estimating, governance, and risk management.
  • Should align with uncertainty, stakeholder needs, and organizational standards.

Example

A hospital software project uses a hybrid approach: predictive planning for compliance documentation and release milestones, while agile sprints deliver patient portal features in increments.
