Abstract

Technology project management is challenging. However, there are few works in the literature related to communication channels (CC) and project success. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the influence of communication channels on the short and medium-term success of software development projects in a Brazilian enterprise. This research is based on a literature review about communication channels and project success. The research has a qualitative and descriptive approach and used an ex-post-facto strategy. Ten software development project management professionals were interviewed at a large banking institution in the first half of 2019. This research confirmed a positive association between CC and software project success when considering efficiency, impact to the customer, and project staff. Besides, we also identified the two most relevant CC for the context studied and identified a CC not mentioned in the literature.
