During phases I and II no overall working design document was produced for which the team were much criticised (00635). This was undoubtedly because with prototyping a design document was not found to be necessary. When I left they had just started to re-engineer a design document for the system (00955) for use during maintenance (01102). Unfortunately I did not observe long enough to discover how useful this would be, but up to the point of my departure the developers had not highlighted their need for such a document. One of the advantages of fourth generation tools is that they can be self-documenting but there was no evidence that the team were using such features - I was never shown documentation produced from the system.
