| Sampling Factors: |
Location: Project teams are predominantly location centric and are executed largely within a location. Hence a need to understand consistency of deployment across locations
Customer (Not Relevant: OU is a R & D unit. Processes are seldom influenced based on customer or customer category.)
Size (Not Relevant: Every project consists of teams from one or more domain specific sub-teams. These teams are typically a maximum of 8 to 10 people. Hence, size is not relevant.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: Projects are delivered through cross functional teams. To that extent the organizational structure is not relevant for sampling basic units as basic units cut across the teams.)
Type of Work: Projects are of multiple types encompassing one or more disciplines. |
