“…We added the global software development (GSD) context because we thought in a distributed setting the alignment is even more important for example architectural design needs to be taken into account when going global [2]. Furthermore, adding GSD is a possibility to narrow the scope in the literature study because business, architecture, process and organisation are words which are used quite often and in a lot of different contexts (e.g.…”

“…But, we found hints in the literature that dependencies between the different perspectives exist [1] and that alignment is needed between different perspectives [2]. Consequently, we conducted an interview study with a software product developing company to find out if there is a need to conduct research in this topic.…”

“…Representatives of other perspectives are not involved in the decision-making process so that a proactive alignment between the perspectives can take place e.g. architectural design needs to be taken into account when going global [2]. So, the question is what the consequences are if the alignment is missing and what the actual level of alignment present in a company is and what measures are taken to align them, or if it is assumed that they will eventually align as they are affected.…”

“…But, it is stated that it is important to understand the dependencies between the BAPO perspectives [2]. Therefore, it is important to define the different BAPO perspectives and their level of alignment.…”

In this paper we investigate the current state of work regarding alignment of Business, Architecture, Process, and Organisation (BAPO) perspectives in a software product development context. We planned to do that by conducting a systematic literature study to capture the state of the art in alignment of BAPO in software development. But, as it turned out we found that almost no substantial information is available about the alignment of BAPO in software development. Thus, based on the available literature and a small qualitative study, we defined a conceptual model of the alignment of BAPO including five levels of alignment that can be used as a basis for future empirical studies.

“…While NCO is a term coined by the Department of Defense [19], the concept has been applied in industry (Boeing, Lockheed-Martin, and others) with shaping systems for Agile operations, and in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) with integrating systems for joint operations. We view the introduction of NCO as the pinnacle of the shift into the network-centric software development model.…”

Abstract. Product Family Engineering is an approach to software engineering that seeks to reduce the global effort in producing multiple software products by actively governing the reuse of assets between the family members. However, Product Family Engineering is a highly knowledge intensive activity putting stringent demands careful planning and management in the organization. This paper presents a study proposal that will examine the effects of knowledge brokering among Communities of Practice as a means to assist this activity.
