- How stable are your requirements?
- How big is the project?
- How engaged is your customer?
- What’s your developer’s skill level?
- What processes — written and unwritten — are in use now?
- Is your organization formal or informal? Mature or ad-hoc?
- How effective are you today? How about your competition?
