“…Resources are allocated in an orderly manner in the Resource Oriented Schedule according to those who will use them while the project is in progress. This includes any resources that are limited in supply but highly sought after by project teams, whether it is space, machinery or labor [23] .…”

“…In the LOB, time, cost and completion of the project are measured, presented, and compared to a specific plan. The scheduling tool was developed to identify the specific points in time where deviations occur in projects, as well as the subsequent results, reflecting project goals as a single line on a graph, of activities completed/time, to which teams are expected to adhere to stay on track [23] .…”

“…Scheduling in this way allows companies to determine the amount and type of material they will need at various times and locations. In addition, it integrates a hierarchical component which enables managers and workers to access which materials they need at what time, to order those materials accordingly, to follow tasks in sequence and to avoid disrupting other people's work, all while tracking expenses [23] .…”

This paper addresses the integrated processes of planning and scheduling of projects using technologies advanced tools as means for managing change in the era of the 4IR. The paper explores the traditional project management planning and scheduling tools in conjunction with what technology has to offer, to bridge the gap between the traditional project management planning and scheduling tools and what the modern-day business market demands. An analysis of literature covering a wide range of theoretic and empirical studies was performed. The theories underlying various planning and scheduling methods were analysed in relation to the design of projects. A descriptive quantitative secondary data was used as a tool to assess the impact of technology on project planning for scheduling. The analysis of the study’s data was conducted using the principles of cross - tabulation. Inferences were drawn on the significant impact of the use of advanced technological tools on project planning for scheduling in current business time. Organisations can make use of the findings of this study to correctly apply the available advanced technological tools for more efficient schedule management planning to enhance the successful delivery of their projects. Further, this research can be used to provide learning opportunities for new and inexperienced planners and schedulers, and as a basis for further research in this field of knowledge.

“…In 2019, Jayraj and Bhaskaran [28] argued that agile does not have any specifications about effort estimation, which is serious drawback as requirement analysis and its estimation in terms effort and time duration required to accomplish the tasks of the project are very critical factors and they proposed a HEETAD as hybrid form of the SDLC model to overcome these challenges for software projects and development teams. In 2019, Suresh and Sivakumar [33] analyzed factors affecting project schedule and plan management and carried out that project scheduling is essential for time management by providing operations monitoring facility during life cycle phase of project and helps in identification risk during the progress of project. In 2019, Narayanan and Ganesh performed [30] research on impact of Scrum and XP in SCM processes in material management section where they concluded that Scrum is well suited for time box management but it very critical to follow time boxed Sprint and achieve predefined result in real world.…”

Software industries have been growing with the rise of automation technologies and looking for change in their software development practices to gain the benefits of automation technologies for achieving their business goals. Agile Business Process Reengineering (ABPR) is trending approach for Software Engineering Management (SEM) in software industries, which helps software development organization in transformation of software development practices. Scrum and Kanban are fascinating Agile methodologies adopted by Software Engineering Management practitioners. Scrumban, a mixture of both Scrum and Kanban, has derived strengths of both frameworks, in formation of a robust framework against challenges of Agile Software Engineering (ASE) methodologies like work flow control, lead time management, product delivery that could not be solved by Scrum or Kanban as a standalone framework. But still some of challenges, which are out of scope of Scrumban like project requirement documentation, planning, scheduling, estimation and clear product vision at initial stage of the project. Such issues have raised a request of research for Software Process Reengineering (SPR) in Scrumban by customizing its structure for to form the next level of hybrid framework. The Traditional SDLC methodology ‘Waterfall’ has answers for such issues. An empirical analysis, for resolution of such issues, with the help of ‘Waterfall’ model and its life cycle protocols is the main goal this research study by integrating Scrum and Kanban with Waterfall to form a hybrid framework ‘Scrumbanfall’ aligning Kanban in center of integration under the boundary of Scrum rules. This research also highlights limitations of Scrumbanfall like team members and their roles and capabilities for the large scaled project having team members in distributed environment, which open the door for next level of research to overcome such challenges using further hybridization of Scrumbanfall.

“…Technological world has been consistently emerging BPR request in the software domains and the software development organization should be ready to adopt such new technologies [6] . Agile methodologies approach, no or minimum documentation for the software project development by relying on software development team to manage it but the software project development and management processes become more critical as the size of project grows [35] . Project estimation for additional cost, resource, infrastructure etc., becomes more complex [36] .…”

Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is an organizational strategy seeking identification of critical factors affecting software development practices in Software Engineering Management (SEM). The agile approaches opened the door of BPR in software development organizations. Dynamically changing technological environment has invited software development organizations, towards adoption of reengineering of strategies and practices. Nowadays, Scrum has been trending as an agile framework for Software Engineering Management (SEM) in software development organizations but considerable research work has not been done with Scrum and its successful implementation yet. The goal of this research is to highlight weaknesses and limitations of Scrum like project level documentation, planning, estimation, progress tracker, CICD etc.; and identification of challenges and issues with implementation of Scrum in software project development like large scaled project in distributed work environment with multiple Scrum teams, organizational structure, lack of knowledge ad awareness about Scrum; using empirical analysis and literature studies. The result of this research will open the door for the next stage of research to overcome the limitation and issues with implementation of Scrum and raise a request of BPR towards focus on improvement in SEM practices in software development organizations by proposing proper training about the empiricism control theory of Scrum that helps organizations in understanding the successful implementation of Scrum and its benefits. This research also raises a question in the form of suggestion that it is good time for a hybrid form of Scrum with other standard agile based frameworks or traditional SDLC methodologies.
