In the 90’s it was becoming apparent that a universal method that could be applied to ’any’ information system development (ISD) project is a mirage. Project specificity, differing application engineer skills and experience lead to deviations from the prescriptions made by given methods. This was revealed by several survey based studies (e.g. [6], [1], [7], [4]). For example, a survey of method use in over 100 organizations’ [4] shows that more than 2/3 of the companies have developed or adapted their methods in-house. Also 89% of respondents believed that methods should be adapted on a project to project basis. These observations raised the need for techniques to rapidly build methods adapted to engineer preferences and project situations. The area of Method Engineering (ME) attempts to provide these techniques.
