Abstract
In recent years many initiatives to improve a use of formal software development methodologies (SDM) in organisations have been commenced, nevertheless not many successful. Different studies show that many software development organisations do not own a formal SDM, and only a fraction of organisations that own a formal SDM actually follow it [2, 5, 13, 14].
