In which phase of the Appian delivery methodology is optimization performed?

The optimization phase is focused on enhancing the performance, usability, and efficiency of the Application. This phase encourages developers to analyze user feedback, identify areas for improvement, and implement changes that lead to a more effective solution.

During optimization, teams refine existing processes, streamline user experiences, and ensure the application meets user demands while adhering to best practices. This is a crucial stage where the application is fine-tuned after initial deployment and feedback has been received, ensuring that it evolves to better meet user needs and expectations over time.

In contrast, the other phases serve different purposes: the release phase is dedicated to launching the application, the build phase focuses on developing and constructing the application itself, and the initiate phase is about planning and defining project goals. Thus, optimization stands out as the dedicated phase for enhancing a solution post-launch.
