| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: All application and solutions Development work is conducted and coordinated from Dongguan location in China. Thus, geographical location is not a differentiator for Development Department at Dongguan Ruihui Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and does not make any material difference to the way processes are applied by the OU.)
Customer (Not Relevant: All customers for Dongguan Ruihui Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. are related to similar requirements for the automotive domain with specific focus on embedded software applications that are used to execute, monitor and analyse various process functionalities, attributes and parameters during manufacturing of automotive components and equipment. Hence, the customer type is not a differentiator with regards to process execution.)
Size: There are differences in the way processes are executed depending on whether the basic unit (Project) is Large, Medium or Small size. The sizing construct is as below: 1) Large > 60 Man Months 2) Medium 20 Man Months – 60 Man Months 3) Small < 20=”” man=”” months.=”” the=”” difference=”” in=”” size=”” leads=”” to=”” some=”” differences=”” in=”” processes,=”” particularly=”” affecting=”” rd,=”” ts,=”” pi,=”” ver,=”” val,=”” pp,=”” pmc=”” and=”” ipm=”” process=””>
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: A single management structure governs the OU and there are no multiple structures or any such structural complexities that may result in variations in the way processes are executed by the OU. Thus, Organisational Structure is not a differentiator for the OU – Development Department and does not make any material difference to the way processes are applied to execute work.)
Type of Work (Not Relevant: All basic units perform software application development involving similar requirements that cut across the automotive domain. The same lifecycle as well as the same QMS processes are used across projects. Hence, the type of work does not make any material difference to the way processes are applied to execute the work in Development Department (OU).) |
