Phase 5 - Continuous Improvement

From DocWiki

Testing and ongoing improvements in operation, use and documentation occur in Phase 5 - Continuous Improvement. Phase 5 also represents the beginning of the feedback cycle, one which might trigger the initiation of a new increment (thus another Phase 4).

Any of variety of use and improvement factors might trigger the need for updates, revisions or new developments to the current installation. This is also the point at which methods and processes may be identified for revision and improvement.

At the end of the deployment's useful life project closeout also occurs. That activity also belongs to this phase, but is only undertaken upon the close of the last installation increment.
