Abstract
Background: The outbreak of a Covid-19 pandemic changed the working patterns of software projects delivery. Aim: The study examines how the work from home (WFH) impacted the software project execution for emergence of differentiating patterns. Method: The data on project execution in two country locations was examined. The population is 3711 projects across 52 months (26 pre- and 26 post-pandemic) is analyzed. The paper identifies the changed patterns of execution. Results: WFH resulted in a more frequent reporting of the project status, significantly higher granularity of reporting, small changes in the statuses reported and significant changes in the duration of a project in a given status. Conclusion: The study concludes that the WFH have had overall positive impact on the software project execution, but notices that it was achieved with increase in reporting frequency and granularity. Keywords:software engineering, project management, empirical study, data-driven software engineering.
