Identifying factors for evaluating software project proposals
One vital aspect of software project management is the initial evaluation of project proposals. Many authors have proposed varying sets of criteria for information technology (IT) software project evaluation. There is the need to develop a common framework for evaluating software projects, based on a manageable set of criteria. In this paper, we identified 83 software project proposal evaluation variables from literature and direct interviews with project evaluators; 31 variables were extracted under ten constructs using exploratory factor analysis. Product characteristics, user characteristics and vendor experience were found to be very crucial in software project proposal evaluation. The parameters identified in this work could serve as a basis for the development of a software system for evaluating software project proposals.
期刊介绍:
IJQET fosters the exchange and dissemination of research publications aimed at the latest developments in all areas of quality engineering. The thrust of this international journal is to publish original full-length articles on experimental and theoretical basic research with scholarly rigour. IJQET particularly welcomes those emerging methodologies and techniques in concise and quantitative expressions of the theoretical and practical engineering and science disciplines.
