The iterative process is a method of implementing something, such as software, by starting with one version and modifying it through incremental cycles until the final product is made. The iterative process does not just apply to software, but it is commonly used within the industry. It has proven to be successful, but a weakness of the method is its inability to work on smaller projects. The iterative approach requires slow development time, which allows room for feedback and adjustments to the product (Cobb, 2015). Due to its slow-paced nature, smaller projects are likely to not be completed on time or correctly. A strength of the iterative approach is its ability to detect defects almost immediately (Cobb, 2015). This is due to its problem-solving nature, which allows designers to catch issues and address them quickly.

To provide an example, creating a website would work well with the iterative process because the website could be planned and designed, and then adjusted and tested until it is running smoothly. The people designing the website would update sections of it as they went along until the site was fully functioning and up to standard. As defects were detected, they could be fixed immediately, moving the designers forward in the project. Designing a website can be a longer project that requires adaptability and incremental design, but it can be done efficiently through the iterative process.
