Xavor will implement the solution using an iterative variation of the waterfall development methodology. An initial Analysis & Design phase will be conducted during which Xavor and the Client will finalize the detailed functional requirements of the project. The development team will then commence development of the features based on the functional requirements. This will be followed up with the System Integration Testing & User Acceptance Testing phases, wherein the solution will be deployed and integrated on the Clients Test platform environment and then finally nominated user acceptance testers will validate the functionality of the solution for its correctness and conformance to the approved requirements. Once the solution has passed the user acceptance criteria mutually agreed between Xavor and the Client the solution will be promoted to the Production platform environment. After this the Client will be entitled to one week of post-production support and enhancements. Throughout this lifecycle Xavor can provide demos or update the Client environment based on mutually agreed schedules and milestones. Various documents produced during this project lifecycle are highlighted in the deliverables section of this document.
