We are living in the digital age. Everything we touch and do these days from ordering products & services, studying, to booking travel, digital solutions are everywhere. In a world increasingly driven by technology, understanding the creation of digital solutions is more crucial than ever.

This first book in a comprehensive three-part series on digital solutions, focuses on the essential context and modelling that precedes development and delivery. It explores their definition, categorization, usage, and the initial stages of their development, and offers practical guidance to a range of stakeholders, including business analysts, software developers, software testers, solution architects and technologists.

The complete series covers the entire life cycle of defining, designing, developing and delivering digital solutions, providing an essential body of knowledge (including extensive references for further study) for students of the BCS International Diploma in Solution Development.
