This enables us to standardise our working procedures, so ensuring that we develop consistent products which are easy to use and maintain. The main advantages of using a methodology are the following: Application of development standards, meaning that all projects are consistent, which In turn means that I.T. staff are more mobile and makes the progress of the project easier to monitor. Use of a shared language with the user. This allows the latter to play a real part in the analytical stage, so avoiding surprises later on. The top-down approach we use, working from a general focus down to details, enables us to communicate with the user at all levels, and to go into each issue in as much detail as the user wishes. Our methodology is oriented towards making maintenance easier. This means that wherever something can be changed, this can be done without seriously affecting the system; it means that information can be shared with other systems in the future, and it means that any part of the system can be located and modified without consequences for the whole.
