  2.8 The Complex Method SSADM
In 1983, SSADM was declared as the standard to be applied for DP development projects of the British government.
The present valid SSADM version is Version 4 (since July 1990) /Downs, 1992/.

 Introduction to Methodologies & SSADM Version 4
SSADM (in common with other structured methodologies) adopts a precriptive approach to information systems development in that it specifies in advance the modules, stages and tasks which have to be carried out, the deliverables to be produced and furthermore the techniques used to produce the deliverables.
SSADM is used by other companies because they expect the use of a disciplined ‘engineering approach will eventually improve the quality of the systems they produce.
SSADM is managed by the CCTA, however the Design Authority Board (DAB) is responsible for maintaining and developing SSADM and the NCC (National Computing Centre) produce and maintain the definitive SSADM documentation.

  TEACHING\CE\ssadm
SSADM will be used as an illustrative example because it is felt that if ethical enrichment can be achieved in a "hard" systems approach then it is likely to be achievable in most approaches.
SSADM is now used as an illustrative method to further discussion of the ethics of information systems development.
The ethical enhancement of SSADM is a considerable task that is beyond the scope of this paper.

 What is SSADM? - a definition from Whatis.com - see also: Structured Systems Analysis & Design Method
SSADM is in the public domain, and is formally specified in British Standard BS7738.
SSADM covers those aspects of the life-cycle of a system from the feasibility study stage to the production of a physical design; it is generally used in conjunction with other methods, such as PRINCE, which is concerned with the broader aspects of project management.
SSADM is a very comprehensive model, and a characteristic of the method is that projects may use only those elements of SSADM appropriate to the project.

 SSADM
SSADM was produced for a UK government office concerned with the use of technology in government, from 1980 onwards.
SSADM is a waterfall method by which an Information System design can be arrived at; SSADM can be thought to represent a pinnacle of the rigorous document-led approach to system design, and contrasts with more contemporary Rapid Application Development methods such as DSDM.
SSADM is one particular implementation and builds on the work of different schools of development methods, some of the key members of which included:

 Model Systems: SSADM
By the mid-1990s SSADM was the most widely-used application development methodology in Europe, with over 5,000 certified practitioners.
John Hall was the original architect of SSADM, and he and the late Keith Robinson were the co-developers of Version 1.
Model Systems undertook more SSADM research and development than any other company, and Model Systems staff wrote or co-wrote more than 20 SSADM textbooks and reference manuals; for example, John Hall co-authored the reference manuals and user guide for version 4.2, the last entire methodology update.

 SSADM Briefing and Case Studies
Their primary focus is on business systems, their analysis and the specification of a set of business requirements, all done using a pragmatic approach to the use of the Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method, SSADM.
The author, Mark Ridley, has been using SSADM since 1990, and has spent 16 years as a freelance business analysis consultant.
In that time he has seen and has been retained to correct many instances of a flawed approach to analysis and specification within in-house IT departments.
