A structured systems analysis and design practice is also being widely used in the OGCIO for developing computer application systems. During the development of the practice, Structured Systems Analysis and Design Methodology (SSADM), a methodology developed in the United Kingdom, has been utilised. The practice contains a structural set of procedural, technical and documentation standards, clearly defining the expectations for the software deliverables to be delivered by the project teams.

The purpose of this document is to give the readers an overview of SSADM and how SSADM is applied in OGCIO.

This document explains the typical structure of work processes of structured systems analysis and design.

This document defines standards for products that are specific to SSADM and non-SSADM products that are delivered during systems analysis and design.

This document provides detailed rules and guidelines of SSADM techniques on where and how to apply them during systems analysis and design.

This document lists out the quality control requirements to be applied to all major SSADM products.
