IBI uses the Rapid Application Development (RAD) model due to its effectiveness in the successful creation of custom database management systems. A typical production lifecycle in our custom database development are as follows:

	Requirements analysis
	Our software engineers work closely with our clients for business logic and requirements collection to produce a design document and a statement of work. These preparatory documents cover the comprehensive business and functional requirements for the proposed database application.
	Design and functional specifications
	IBI’s design engineers derive the logical and physical specification of the application based on the functional requirements. This includes a detailed design of the database schema, detailed ER diagram, physical data storage, data fields and data types. We insure that the database schemas are fully normalized for optimal design, with relevant data dictionaries defined. The specification also includes user interface requirements for database management. The design is fully centered around the business and functional requirements defined above, with emphasis on future scalability and expansion.
	Implementation
	IBI’s software engineers integrate functional specifications and implement the database design to the highest coding standards and procedures. Where appropriate, clients are able to test prototypes during the database development process for verification of target design and the provision of key feedback during developmental stages.
	Testing and acceptance
	Once our development team has tested the system, we release it to our client for beta-testing. At this point, we get comprehensive feedback from the end user with a defined acceptance and satisfaction check list.
	Deployment
	Our deployment team verifies a series of checklists ranging from hardware/software implementation, network infrastructure and the appropriate security protocols utilized prior to deployment of the final database application. If applicable, IBI can produce automated application installers which can run from a CD, launched from a web browser, or installed from a centralized network location.
	Support and maintenance
	All of IBI’s work is covered by a strict assurance of performance quality and reliability. However, additional database support and maintenance agreements can be executed for future database integrity and monitoring.
