| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: Location does not significantly impact the range of conditions in which processes must operate. Regardless of location, projects are tailored to meet the type of work and the methodology chosen.)
Customer (Not Relevant: The customer does not significantly impact the range of conditions in which processes must operate. Macro selects processes based on the type of work and the methodology chosen.)
Size (Not Relevant: Size does not significantly impact the range of conditions in which processes must operate. Regardless of size, Macro will select processes which best fit the type of work and the methodology required.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: Org Structure does not significantly impact the range of conditions in which processes must operate. The processes selected do not vary based on the organizational structure. All PMs report to the COO and the processes are based on the type of work and the methodology chosen.)
Type of Work: Type of Work varies between the Development projects and the Services projects in the application of processes
Methodology: Methodology is a significant factor in how work is performed at Macro. Agile and Waterfall projects vary significantly. |
