In this video I will be talking about rebuilding a custom application. First, Ill talk about factors involved in making the decision. Then I will talk about the Rapid Design Method and give examples of documents you can use. Ill end with some thoughts about development tools. The first thing you should consider is whether the application can be replaced with Off-the-Shelf software. Its possible that since the application was written, a commercial application for doing that job has been created. Buying a commercial application will be cheaper than rebuilding a custom application. Some years ago I was called in by a clinic that needed to replace their home-made system for scheduling doctors and nurses. The had discussed this project with another vendor, who had recommended building a new custom system. When I heard about the project I thought: This must be a common problem, and there must be commercial software for doing this. So I wrote up some simple use cases covering the most important feature and went out to locate and test potential replacements. Ultimately, I found a very good off-the-shelf program for doing this. And it turned out that the parent organization already had licenses to use it. The next possibility is that you may find an off-the-shelf application that does most of what you need. In this case you can think about extending the functionality of the application by building a bolt-on piece for it. A bolt-on piece is a small application that adds …

A short video showing the various features of my computing project – an EPOS system which replaces the DOS EPOS where I work. The programming is only about half complete, the database engine is nearly complete, transactions are saved correctly, but it cannot yet cash up, start in a morning, refund, view statistics or print receipts. The databases are dBase, and my database engine loads the dBase Files and manipulates them indepent of other software, such as Microsoft Office.
