| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: All work is performed in the same location, so Location is not a relevant sampling factor.)
Customer (Not Relevant: All work is performed for the Power Science Research Institute of the State Grid Group, so Customer is not a relevant sampling factor.)
Size: Hypothesis testing of the process performance parameters indicates that product size is a relevant sampling factor.
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: All work is performed by the R&D Center, so Organizational Structure is not a relevant sampling factor.)
Type of Work (Not Relevant: All work is the same type or product development, so Type of Work is not a relevant sampling factor.)
Complexity of Work: Hypothesis testing of the process performance parameters indicates that complexity of the work is a relevant sampling factor. |
| Sampling Factor Values: |
Medium Projects (Size): Projects that are greater than 185 KLOC and less then 293 KLOC
Small Projects (Size): Projects that are less than 185 KLOC
High Complexity (Complexity of Work): New product development involving new technology, algorithms, or business domain.
Medium Complexity (Complexity of Work): New product development with less development experience in the domain, but no new technology or algorithms |
