We are living in the digital age: from ordering products & services to studying and booking travel, digital solutions are everywhere we go and in everything we do. In a world increasingly driven by technology, understanding the creation of digital solutions is ever more crucial.

The second book in the comprehensive three-partDigital Solutions collection, Designing Digital Solutions offers a complete guide to digital solution design, exploring its nature, scope and a range of approaches and methodologies. It delves deep into various disciplines, situating them within the broader fields of solution and software architecture. The book also offers a range of stakeholders guidance on the decision making involved in digital solution design, which often requires compromise between business ambitions and ‘the art of the possible’. 

The complete collection covers the entire life cycle of defining, designing, developing and delivering digital solutions, providing an essential body of knowledge (including extensive references for further study) for students of the BCS International Diploma in Solution Development.

This book shows that good requirements and digital solution design are seamlessly connected. An essential read for all business analysts who wants to make impact with well-designed digital solutions.
