Abstract
To choose an appropriate methodology for software development is one of the primary concerns for those countries where the ICT industry will play a leading role in the near future. Agile methodology has already received enough interest in developed nations. However, deficiencies of experimental studies have been observed in developing countries. These issues are required to be addressed properly since developing nations are currently playing the lead role in software outsourcing and will also continue. Our idea is to consider this agile methodology as one of the services and receive maximum benefits out of it through lessening the challenges and making it popular in the software industry. Based on the survey, Scrum (58%), XP (24%) and DSDM (18%) are found to be the most accepted software projects development methodology in Bangladesh. It can also be stated that the agile method can be considered as the most admired design model and its popularity can be enhanced by 81% through merging with ICTization framework. The results achieved from this paper are anticipated to notify the software developers on the utilization and practice of software development model from the context of Bangladesh.
