A software development methodology is the framework that is used to structure, plan, and control the process of developing an information system. The framework of a software development methodology encompasses a software development philosophy, with the approach or approaches of the software development process and multiple tools, models and methods, to assist the developmental process.

Although a wide variety of such frameworks have evolved over the years, a particular system development methodology is not necessarily suitable for use by all projects.

For instance, software developed using general procedural frameworks are often embedded with additional features unnecessary to the client's needs. In such cases, the money and efforts utilized in developing such software products are wasted and such solutions often yield unsavory results
