Capability Pattern: Construction Iteration
This is an example Construction Phase iteration. It includes the activities typically performed during a single iteration in the construction phase. The goal of the construction phase is clarifying the remaining requirements and completing the development of the system based upon the baselined architecture. The construction phase is in some sense a manufacturing process, where emphasis is placed on managing resources and controlling operations to optimize costs, schedules, and quality. In this sense the management mindset undergoes a transition from the development of intellectual property during inception and elaboration, to the development of deployable products during construction and transition.
