The forward temporal order of these development stages is based on the typical sequence of activities in a system engineering process. Needs analysis is the first stage, where the problem and the stakeholder needs are defined. System design is the second stage, where the system architecture and requirements are developed. Trade study is the third stage, where alternative solutions are evaluated and compared based on various criteria. System acceptance is the final stage, where the system is verified, validated, and delivered to the customer.
