| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: all development and maintenance work within the BHSIS IT project is performed at one location, Arlington, VA and therefore, does not drive differences in conditions under which work is performed.)
Customer (Not Relevant: all development and maintenance work within the BHSIS IT project is performed for only one US Government customer and therefore, does not drive differences in conditions under which work is performed.)
Size (Not Relevant: all development and maintenance work within the BHSIS IT project is not performed differently based on the size of the basic unit or support function and therefore, does not drive differences in conditions under which work is performed.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: all development and maintenance work within the BHSIS IT project is not performed differently across the organization unit and therefore, does not drive differences in conditions under which work is performed.)
Type of Work: (Hybrid, No Project): all development and maintenance work within the BHSIS IT project is performed by a hybrid lifecycle method “type of work” which consists of combining Agile and Iterative Waterfall software development lifecycle methods. In addition to Hybrid, for the purpose of fulfilling SCAMPI Appraisal System (SAS) requirements, a required second sampling factor value for “Type of Work” is identified as “No Project” on the Synectics appraisal record within SAS. |
