Discussion Question

Let's discuss the design phase. The design phase decides how the system will operate in terms of the hardware, software, and network infrastructure that will be in place; the user interface, forms, and reports that will be used; and the specific programs, databases, and files that will be needed. Although most of the strategic decisions about the system are made in the development of the system concept during the analysis phase, the steps in the design phase determine exactly how the system will operate. The design phase has four steps. Please respond to the following prompt:

• Discuss the four steps to the design phase. 
  • Please be sure to describe each step’s purpose.
