Summary
The first step on the path to a successful application is capturing in business terms the business process and design requirements of the project and application. To capture these details for your planned application, use a guided Direct Capture of Objectives (DCO) development tool the Application Profiler to create an application profile for that application. The application profile for a particular application is a collection of that information that specifies the business processes, case types, use cases, requirements, and other processing elements associated with implementing the application. The application profile answers the question "What will we build?" The goal of using the Application Profiler and creating an application profile is to focus discussions and get the project started in the right direction. Business analysts, lead architects, and other project members collaboratively and iteratively create the application profile. This collaborative effort increases the likelihood of a successful implementation because core business questions are asked, discussed, and answers captured in the application profile. On average, it takes a few days of dedicated effort to build and complete a profile. Then that collection of application information that is represented in the application profile is used to prime the generation of the initial application thus providing the project with the most relevant information from the start.
