Component One: Requirements Gathering, Creation of Use Cases, and Risk Analysis
Interview stakeholders and prepare detailed documentation of the requirements that the software will need to meet in order to satisfy the needs of all stakeholders; delineate scenarios or use cases that detail specific interactions that different groups of users may experience with the system; and identify all potential risks to the success of the project and appropriate mitigation strategies.

Component Two: Data Development and Training
Establish a workflow for DoA staff to begin completing and correcting existing data on archaeological sites in Jordan in a way that prepares the new data for import into the GIS once developed. Train key DoA staff to undertake this process.

Component Three: System Development
Prepare a mockup of the system's user-interface for review by the project team; based on the agreed design, develop a fully functioning prototype of the system.

Component Four: System Implementation and Training
Implement a pilot version of the prototype for access from the Amman and Irbid offices in Jordan; fine tune the system in response to users' feedback; once finalized, install the system's servers at the DoA Amman office and implement the system for countrywide access.

Component Five: Maintenance and Monitoring Support
Provide ongoing system monitoring and maintenance support, including monthly on-site visits for a period of two years following full system deployment.
