Abstract
The success or failure of Software Project management consists of two components, namely the technical and non-technical
components of software development. Non-technical related components of software development process tend to be under
managed. Further research on success and failure of software projects developed in-house are sparse. Therefore a study was
conducted in India among the industries that are into in-house software development, to investigate the influence of the nontechnical
components of the software development process, on success and failure of software development from the practitioners’
perspective. The Study reveals that practitioners’ consider the level of customer/user involvement, software process management,
and estimation & schedule contribute most to project success and failure.
