espite the significant evolution within the software industry, software quality remains a pertinent problem to many organisations today. This is because interactions between software project parameters in software development environment are complex and dynamic. Both management and developers have problems monitoring the fluctuations in quality that occur within the development process. This paper provides an insight on quality fluctuations that occur in a software project, using a quality index. The research focuses not only on changes on software project parameters that occur at the end but also throughout the software development process through dynamic modelling. The findings proved the ratio of 75-25 experienced to inexperienced staffs percentage to be the most practical combination. Likewise, the right balance of schedule pressure is determined and recommended so that it contributes to increasing the productivity during software development.
