Analysis of environmental factors in the adoption of iso/iec 29110. Multiple case study
Abstract
The software industry comprising small companies represents an interesting
opportunity for economic development. But these still have problems
in productivity and the quality of their delivered products. In this context, the
ISO/IEC 29110 standard has been developed, which represents an opportunity
for small companies whose adoption depends on several factors, in particular,
those related to the environment. In this paper, we study the influence of environmental
factors on the adoption of ISO/IEC 29110 standard. For this research,
a multiple case study was carried out, which includes four organizations as units
of analysis. In a controlled environment, each organization implemented the
processes belonging to the basic profile of the ISO/IEC 29110 standard. After
the implementation, an analysis has been made of the environmental factors that
influenced the adoption of the standard. Of the 16 environmental factors analyzed,
it was found that 6 factors influenced all the organizations and those related
to the support and trust of the partners had the greatest positive influence
on the standard adoption, while the defense factor of the partners had the most
negative influence. All other factors had minimal or no influence.
