My first concern is always to establish the user requirements, and accept that the users may not be fully aware of these requirements until they have seen the possibilities. I have always adhered to the tenets of the Agile Programming or Rapid Prototyping approach to system development.
The result is an iterative process in which the user is fully engaged. The corollary of this is the need for rapid acquisition of domain-specific knowledge. I have had many years of experience of this, both in scientific/technical and in businesss environments.
