In the face of uncertainties that constitute a challenge to every software development project, developers lack guidance to manoeuvre between the boundaries of flexibility and structures when choosing or amending development methods to their needs. The underlying motivation for this research was the question of how to improve the predictability and controllability while at the same time increasing flexibility, which lies at the heart of system design [1].This is especially true in fast changing industries such as software development. In order to investigate how agile development methods, and especially the project management framework Scrum, can best support different software development endeavours it is necessary to test agile methods for their capability to establish a balance of organisational flexibility and stability, which is a fundamental challenge for organisations [2].
