| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: All application and solutions development work is conducted at Hangzhou, China. Thus, geographical location is not a differentiator for Technical Innovation Center at State Grid Zhejiang Electric Vehicle Service Company Ltd. and does not make any material difference to the way processes are applied by the OU.)
Customer: There are differences in the way processes are executed depending on whether the customer is external or internal to the organisation. The external or internal nature of the customer leads to some differences in processes, particularly affecting RD, REQM, PP, PMC, RSKM, MA and IPM process areas.
Size: There are differences in the way processes are executed depending on whether the basic unit (Project) is Large, Medium or Small size. The sizing construct is as below: 1) Large > 50 Man Months 2) Medium 20 Man Months – 50 Man Months 3) Small < 20=”” man=”” months.=”” the=”” difference=”” in=”” size=”” leads=”” to=”” some=”” differences=”” in=”” processes,=”” particularly=”” affecting=”” rd,=”” ts,=”” pi,=”” ver,=”” val,=”” pp,=”” pmc=”” and=”” ipm=”” process=””>
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: A single management structure governs the OU and there are no multiple structures or any such structural complexities that may result in variations in the way processes are executed by the OU. Thus, Organisational Structure is not a differentiator for the OU – Technical Innovation Center and does not make any material difference to the way processes are applied to execute work.)
Type of Work (Not Relevant: All basic units perform software application development involving similar requirements that cut across the automotive domain. The same lifecycle as well as the same QMS processes are used across projects. Hence, the type of work does not make any material difference to the way processes are applied to execute the work in Technical Innovation Center (OU).) |
