 Organizational culture is built and reinforced every life year of a large-size
-organization. These cultural values reflect on the internal management processes
-and the norms of communication among its members. In the context of software
-development projects, each institution adopts development methods that best meet
-its managerial procedures and organizational routines. When two large-size
-organizations decide to develop a solution collaboratively, the development
-methods and workflow of one may conflict with the interests of the other. In a
-case of government-academia collaboration, conciliating their different
-management processes is crucial, since the poor and unadaptable management could
-lead the project to fail, resulting in the waste of population-funded resources.
