Initial Production Phase

Definition

Initial Production Phase: the application development cycle phase during which the an initial small number of systems are manufactured

Goals

The typical goals of the Initial Production Phase of an application development project include:

Manufacture a small initial number of systems to identify potential problems.
Eliminate the highest risks before full scale production starts.

Objectives

To meet these goals, the typical objectives of the initial production phase on an application development project include:

Preconditions

The following preconditions should typically be satisfied before the initial production phase of an application development project can successfully begin:

The complete current version of the application has been constructed has been successfully completed during the construction phase.
The manufacturing organization is initially staffed and adequately trained in manufacturing.

Postconditions

The initial production phase of an application development project is typically complete when the following postconditions have been met:

A small initial number of production systems have been developed and tested.
Manufacturing facilities have been developed.

Milestones

The typical milestones of the initial production phase of an application development project include:
