Abstract—Software intensive organisations require the integration of agility, people, process, product and tool elements for establishing a hybrid adaptive software development capability. This paper presents the results of the empirical study that has been conducted to identify the important underlying characteristics of the hybrid adaptive software development capability elements. Based on this investigation, the most critical and the least critical characteristics of the hybrid adaptive software development capability elements have been identified. The findings of this empirical study have several implications, and can be recasted into making practical recommendations for establishing a situation-specific hybrid adaptive software development capability.
