Every software project is unique in its own way. As a consequence, a single software process model cannot be suitable for all types of projects. In the real world, practitioners face different difficulties with the existing process models during development. Still, they cope up with the challenges by tailoring the software development lifecycle according to their needs. Most of these custom-tailored practices are kept inside the walls of the organizations. However, sharing these proven and tested practices as well as acquired knowledge and experience would be highly beneficial for other practitioners as well as researchers. So in this paper, we have presented a software process model which contains the characteristics of both Scrum and Waterfall model and named it “ScrumFall”. This model has been practicing in an Anonymous Software Development Company, Bangladesh to solve the shortcomings of Scrum and Waterfall models. Moreover, we have analyzed the performance and suitability for applying this process model. The result shows that this process model is highly effective for the certain projects.
