| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: All of the project teams are located in Shanghai, and the location has no impact on the process implementation.)
Customer (Not Relevant: They follow the similar processes to develop the products for all their customers. So the customer has no impact on the processes.)
Size (Not Relevant: All of the projects have the similar size, they follow the similar processes. So, the project size has no impact on processes implementation.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: All of the projects are from the Information Center and Data Center. They follow the similar processes to deliver the product. The org structure has no impact on the process implementation.)
Type of Work (Not Relevant: All of the projects follow the similar processes. So the type of work has no impact on processes implementation.)
Life Cycle Models: Some projects follow the Iteration LCM to deliver the products and some projects follow the Traditional LCM. The requirement process, planning and estimating processes are different. |
| Sampling Factor Values: |
Iteration LCM (Life Cycle Models): This subgroup develops products by following the iteration life cycle models.
Traditional LCM (Life Cycle Models): This subgroup develops products by following the traditional life cycle models |
| Subgroups: |
Iteration LCM: this subgroup develops products by following the iteration life cycle models.
100 People, 7 Basic Units
– Iteration LCM
Traditional LCM: This subgroup develops products by following the traditional life cycle models.
50 People, 3 Basic Units
– Traditional LCM |
