| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: No, because the development of our software does not depend on location, but on team.)
Customer (Not Relevant: All projects are done in the same way; different customers have no big difference in how the project will be executed.)
Size (Not Relevant: No, because all projects need the same tasks and the difference between them is the time that each tasks need.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: Organizational structure does not affect to the projects. All projects are done without consider specific organizational units.)
Type of Work: Yes, because we have three types of work: deployment, deployment & development, and maintenance & support. |
| Sampling Factor Values: |
Deployment (Type of Work): The project just needs a deployment “out-of-the-box” and no more tasks.
Deployment & Development (Type of Work): The project needs ad-hoc development, which includes requirements elicitation, requirements analysis, software design, development, etc.
Maintenance & Support (Type of Work): The software is installed and being used. This type of project needs updates of software, “patches” and recurrent reviews. |
| Subgroups: |
