“…If models and methods are so closely related, construction and evaluation standards should also be aligned. The mutual transfer of situational concepts and adaptation mechanisms from models to methods and vice versa, which has been outlined in Becker et al (2007) and Winter & Schelp (2006), could -and should -be facilitated on a common conceptual foundation.…”

“…The possible benefits of reference models are to raise the quality of model design, reduce cost, time and risk, reuse knowledge and provide access to industry best practices [2]. When you reuse, instead of developing from scratch, a positive influence can be observed on the time to market, product quality and development cost of the intended product [3].…”

Process reference models can serve as a tool for simplifying process problem-solving during software development software. In the authors' research project, they developed a process reference model for software product line product derivation. The development was completed in four stages using sources in industry and academia. In this study, the authors discuss their research approach. They include an explanation on how the different stages of the research form a continuum in which the model is continually adjusted, and describe how empirical evidence was used in the development of the reference model through following an evolutionary multi-method research approach. Following a discussion on each research stage, the authors briefly present the evolution of the reference model they have developed, Pro-PD, as an exemplar of their approach. The study contributes to an improved understanding of real world reference model construction. Importantly, the authors also present lessons learned while implementing the approach. This research contributes to the practical implementation of reference model construction guidelines.

“…Typical results of Consortium Research are reference models, which are used as templates in design processes (vom Brocke 2007;Winter and Schelp 2006), and "best practices" as a preliminary stage of a reference model. Without sufficient analysis of existing solutions, research risks to reinvent things that are already available, thereby falling short of the state of the art already accomplished in the industry.…”

Design-oriented IS research aims at delivering results which are of scientific rigor and of practical relevance at the same time. Recently, a number of guidelines have emerged helping researchers to do design-oriented IS research. However, these guidelines lack of supporting the researcher in gaining access to and capturing knowledge from the practitioner community. This paper proposes a method for Consortium Research, a multilateral form of collaborative research in which practitioners grant researchers access to their knowledge, collaborate in the specification of solutions, test artifacts in their business environments, and finance the research activities.
