multistage
Having multiple steps
Multistage describes something occurring in or consisting of multiple distinct phases or steps.
A multistage rocket sheds sections as it ascends.
A multistage process involves sequential operations: The hiring process is multistage—phone screen, then interview, then background check.
The word emphasizes that stages are separate and often build on each other.
