- 5. JAD Process Philosophy Theuniversity of Texas resource center (2008) helps to sum up four principles of the JAD method: • People who work on a project have the best understanding. • People who are trained in IT understand expertise of specific technologies. • Information systems and business process are interdependent processes.
