The "Plan, Do, Check, Act" model used in Total Quality and continuous
improvement environments fits the RP environment well, as shown logically
below:
Grow(initial prototype) Creation
Until(replaced) Evolution
Grow(expanded version)
EndUntilGrow(system)
Until(converge to a solution)
Analyze the customer's needs (Plan)
Create a demonstrable prototype (Do)
Check closeness of fit
Act to improve
End Until
Deliver the system
End(Grow)
