The incentive process doesn't sound right to me. I think it’s definitely between integrated and internal, but I can't recall the specifics.

I feel like the internal process could fit, but it doesn't quite match the analysis part. I wish I had reviewed more examples.

I remember discussing the implementation process, but that seems more about executing changes rather than analyzing current systems.

I think this might be related to the integrated process, but I'm not entirely sure. We covered something similar in class.

The implementation process sounds like the right answer here. That's the phase where you assess the current system and plan the new target architecture.

D) Implementation process? I thought that was when you just throw the new system out the window and hope it lands on its feet.

C) Internal process? Hmm, that's a bit too vague. I'm going with D) – sounds like it's the one that covers the whole planning and design phase.
