4. Specification - laying out specific requirements and solutions.
5. Presentation - where client approval is required - describing planned actions, dealing with any questions and responding to any criticism or misunderstandings.
6. Development - producing initial working models or prototypes.
7. Testing - Running a working model or prototype, problem-solving and vigorously testing prior until everyone involved in the design process is satisfied.
8. Implementation - introduction of the finished product or system into the destination environment, and guiding clients and their staff in its use if required.
9. Appraisal - post-production evaluation of the working product or system, responding to any client questions or criticism and solving any problems that have arisen during or after the implementation stage.
