Joint admission development
This approach is basically used as a method implemented for the development of the business system. The core function of this approach is to integrate information technology and the business society in a well thought-out practicum setting so as to bring about consent that is based on the business system prerequisites. JAD approach was basically established with an aim of improving the systems requirements determination approach (Marchand et al 2000). This approach is a facilitated group method that offers a meaningful emphasis on the human influences on the system development and apparently confronts communication matters. The approach has been widely accepted as it leads to the advancement of the systems needs as it uses free interaction group method where there is unstructured communication that has no control. This, therefore, calls for the JAD approach to critically rely on the excellent facilitation so as to deflect these unstructured communications that result to dysfunctional conducts (Duggan et al 2003). The integration of the nominal group method at relevant intervals during the JAD meetings is significant as it restricts the group dynamics. Nominal group method is more structured and is assists the people to collaborate within a restricted environment. This, therefore, increases the effectiveness of the decision-making process. As the facilitators in the JAD, meetings offer their teachings they use visual aids that assist them in the delivery of important content (Duggan et al 2003). The five processes include the definition of the JAD meeting, familiarizing with the research product, and preparation of the visual aid, conduction of the meeting and lastly the drafting of documents of the JAD meetings (Marchand et al 2000).
In conclusion, the JAD requirements meetings and focus groups are important factors in the success of iterative development advancement. It is through these forms of requirements and examination programs used, that allows for a mutual requirement gathering and design.
Thus the entire team conducting the JAD project will be able to offer an agreement that is based on a high-level requirements deliverables with the shortest time period.
