Abstract

Recently, large-scale system development is ordered through competitive bidding in various computer system. If competitive bidding runs in order to choose a best system proposal, development process is greatly different from conventional software development process of the conventional software engineering. Before developers and customers sign a contract document, requirement analysis and system design activities are started. Of course, the activities are unpaid work because developers do not yet sign the contract with customers. Therefore, we discussed software development business model with competitive bidding. Problems in real competitive bidding are (1) unpaid work such as requirement analysis, (2) judging a best system proposal by customers, (3) budget and schedule are determined before requirement analysis activities. Based on the problems, we show a revised process of top level activities of planning phase and competitive phase for developers’ profit and customers’ high satisfaction.
