Have you ever wondered: if what you pay for software projects is adequate?

If the time/cost/effort that you are given as an estimate to develop an application is reliable? If there is an adequate way to determine the productivity of a development team? If it is possible to have quantitative control of your suppliers and your projects? If you are contracting with the best conditions for the State?
There are several studies that present unsatisfactory results, which reflect the lack of maturity of the software engineering discipline, and consequently the poor results in the developed projects, for example, a study argentina consumer email list by the Standish Group (2012) shows that the development of successful projects is less than 40%, a study by McKinsey (2012) that indicates that “on average, large IT projects exceed 45% over budget and 7% over time, while delivering 56% less than the expected value”, another example is the study by KPMG (2010) where it is mentioned, among other things that “..an incredible 70% of organizations have suffered at least one failed project in the previous 12 months”
The Global Information Technology Report (2016), a special project of the World Economic Forum establishes that the world is entering the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which is characterized by the convergence of digital, physical and biological technologies. It clearly mentions that this Revolution is not defined by any set of emerging technologies, but by the transition of new systems that will be built on the infrastructure of the digital revolution, with technologies (ICTs) being the backbone of this revolution.
