Abstract

New product development projects in the IT industry have introduced various new methods and techniques of team management. IT projects often use hybrid models of new product development, which combine agile team management methods with classic and waterfall project management methodologies. However, there is an alternative solution available that consists in creating a temporary network of experts in a􀁢virtual environment in order to develop a new product or service. The article presents the characteristics of ad-hoc temporary development team networks and specifies the conditions necessary for their creation in a virtual environment. Also, the analysis of a temporary virtual collaborative network used to develop new products in a Polish IT company have been presented as a case study research.
