Information Systems are developed and acquired in business organization in order to achieve the competitive advantage. A good quality information system plays vital role in providing good product and service value to its customers. This study intends to discuss suitable quality practices which could not only support development of a good quality software product but also linked up well with the strategic needs of the organizational business. It first presents what industry recommends for quality practices of software development. Then a framework has been presented that links Information System’s development process improvement with strategic needs of an organization. It also demonstrates development of a primarily process improvement activity i.e. “process improvement plan” depicting how business goals leads to an adaptation of process framework like Capability Maturity Model for Development (CMMI-DEV) while using multi-model PI approach and the benefits achieved with its adaptation targeting development of a Quality Information System.

Project planning is crucial for fruitful completion of a software development project. In case of a certified software development organisation, one can guess whether the software development projects are planned properly or not. But, what to do for a non-certified organisation? The objective of this study is to address this problem. For this purpose, a questionnaire survey has been conducted by involving experienced practitioners. The results show that several software development organisations follow Capability Maturity Model Integration) Project Planning-Process Area practices unofficially. Such organisations are potential candidate organisations for software process improvement initiatives, and would be cheap and safe for successful completion of a project. Keywords: CMMI, software project management, software process improvement, specific goals, specific practices, subpractices.

Agile or Plan-driven approaches to software process improvement (such as the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) and the ISO/IEC 15504 standard) claim to provide companies with improved processes, higher quality software and faster software development. Assessment is an important component of any software process improvement programme, as in order for an organisation to commence an improvement programme, they must first be aware of the current state of their software development practices. Therefore, in the case of small companies such assessments need also to be cost effective and focused only on the most relevant process areas.

The continuous evolving of the information technology towards the enhanced agile and collective strides of working from the document driven working has turned the focus to the features of the information system development and the operations. These agile approaches have paved way for the concepts that provide an incorporated development and operations coined as the DevOps. The DevOps is an enterprise software development and viewed as the appropriate perception for the simultaneous distribution and the positioning of the working software. It enhances and modifies the relationship by promoting improved communication and the cooperation among the business unit. However the adoption of the Development and the Operation being a complex task the paper presents the review on the challenges and the benefits of the DevOps and also explores the DevOps to offer an enhancement in the adoption of the DevOps in the information systems.

The success of information systems development activities are influenced by technology and human resources. Experience and knowledge of team members is the key to performance improvements in the software development process. So the experience and knowledge are considered to be one of the main capitals in the success of a software development team. However, what if the information system development team are students who may not have experience at all ? Is the information system developed by an un-experienced team always fail ? Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a study to identify the factors that influence the student teams in information systems development project. The study was conducted with the literature study to establish research model. Furthermore, a survey conducted by distributing questionnaires to students of information systems whom are doing an internship in developing information systems. The results of the survey were analyzed quantitatively using Partial Least Square technique to test the proposed research model. The results of this study indicate that the development of information systems conducted by a team of students is significantly influenced by the Customer Relationship and Horizontal Relationship. Capability factor have a significant effect although the effect is small on the student teams.
