Customer (Not Relevant: Customer is the financial sector., as a wholly owned subsidiary of Stockholding Management Corp., and all projects follow the same processes at a minimum, without regard to customer specificities. Hence not relevant.)
Size (Not Relevant: Size of the staff in projects range from 1 to over a dozen, with no influence on minimum processes required to be followed. Hence not relevant.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: SDMS has a typical hierarchical management and org. structure. This does not have any influence on the way the work is performed nor processes used. Hence not relevant.)
Type of Work: Two major types of projects are done in the IT division. They include Dev., and Maintenance, each with one project at the current time. Processes follow the minimum set crafted for each type of project., hence this is a relevant factor. |
