1PROBLEMS OF NEW SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Problems a new software development team might encounter
Problem 1: Unrealistic deadlines
Reason behind occurrence
Inadequate change management, incorrect estimation of budget, poor risk management
and inadequate quantitative management is the reasons that may cause unrealistic deadlines. In
any new software development project the process of project scope change are absolutely
controlled (Joslin and Müller 2015). Apart from this, if risks are not identified properly and
project the project is nit tracked accordingly then during implementation period the team
members will face challenges.
Severity
At the initiation phase a project timeline is measured and in order to avoid overrunning
cost the actual cost needs to be similar with the planned cost. The severity of unrealistic deadline
is very high.
Method of mitigation
Before initiation the project team members need to measure the project complexity and
accordingly estimate the possible time limit. Apart from this, a feasibility study must be done to
ensure whether the project is successful or not. Besides this a project timeline must be prepared
to estimate the approximate time needed to complete the project.
