Abstract

Agile methodology is an iterative approach intended to be used in industries importantly in manufacturing and process industries in order to enhance the productivity and the profitability. Several researchers' confluence to investigate critical success factors having the power of 'agility' and their influence in the agile software development (ASD) process. In recent times, the ASD got more importance than the others in software engineering. Therefore, the present authors have developed a model, integrated agile methodology (IAM) for software development process. IAM is a compound system of quality management practice such as ISO 9001:2015 QMS, ISO 45001: 2018 EMS, Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Systems (OHSAS 18001: 2018), Lean Thinking, Six-Sigma (DMAIC), Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and TQM. The prime objective of this study is to develop and propose the conceptual framework and research model of IAM and its implementation for better performance in software development process. Based on extant literature reviews, ten important intervening critical factors are identified under IAM and a research model is proposed to examine the extent of its practice in software industries. Further, the present authors suggest that, the IAM model can be tested and validated by empirical means for hypotheses testing.
