Analysis of Risk Factors in the Scope of Distributed Software Team Structure
Abstract
The structure of a distributed software team represents a type of development that enables team members to be available at different remote locations throughout the software lifecycle. Therefore, it forms a network of remote sub-teams. Nowadays, the development of software projects with geographically remote teams obligates flexible software development environments. In this case, it is of great significance for software managers to organize and administer the distributed team management well. With the inclination of distributed teams across countries and regions, more stakeholders are being brought onto the scene of software projects. While risk management is the most important assurance of obtaining the expected result from the project, these processes should be considered the common responsibilities and commitment of the stakeholders involved in the project in all fields. The 'in-house' development of the software poses a series of risks. Meanwhile, its partial development in another geography causes the risks in question to increase exponentially. The management of risks should start at the initial stages of the project and continue as a monitoring and follow-up activity throughout the life-cycle of projects. Within the scope of this study, the process steps developed to manage the main risk factors in the distributed team structure in accordance with the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) instead of the conventional project management approach are explained in detail. Moreover, this study aimed to reveal the components involved in the risk management process regarding the distributed software development.
