Joint Application Development (JAD) work sessions are used as a very important and essential mechanism of how Infomet analyses problems and designs solutions. Much of the success of the methodology is based on this approach. Infomet has equipped its consulting offices with facilities that support the JAD process. Of course, JAD sessions are extremely effective at the client’s premises, but when a client needs rapid solutions, the consulting centre has better logistical support for this process.
Specially equipped JAD tables make it possible to analyse requirements and model solutions while all of this can be recorded (video taped or snapped) at the press of a button. Scribes can be engaged in a collaborative manner without them actually being in the JAD offices. The session is streamed to the Development Centre where as many scribes as needed can start processing the assertions and models that are being made in the JAD offices. Voice recordings of the client’s requirements are immediately transcribed into draft documents, while models drawn by hand are captured onto a CASE tool. This ensures that documentation is produced immediately after the work sessions, and draft notes are turned into formal and quality documentation in a very short period of time. These sessions are available for later retrieval by architects, designers, developers and project managers for information.
These structured sessions ensure that the valuable time of our clients is not wasted and that all business information is turned into usable format quickly. Deliverables are thus quickly visible and accessible to all those that require it.
To further support this way of working, an electronic E-JAD facility is made available via a project portal. This ensures that the latest set of specifications are accessible from any location, and that participants that are not always able to attend meetings when they should, can be connected in the process. The discussion threads are there to be reviewed, together with the formal models that get built from these sessions.
