CATWOE analysis is a method used in soft systems analysis to identify the key components involved in an information system. It examines the Customers, Actors, Transformations, World view, Owners, and Environment of the system. The Customers are those directly affected by the system. The Actors are those undertaking system activities. Transformations refer to the inputs, processes, and outputs of the system. The World view considers external factors influencing system development. The Owners are those responsible for the organization. The Environment comprises political, economic, social and other contextual factors that could impact the system.
