Abstract: Formulating and determining a methodology in project management in the field of information technology is not easy because it will determine the quality of the product to be developed. A company for about two years has been implementing the agile management methodology in its software development projects. The results of the interviews in terms of time duration, this method is very effective to apply. However, it takes an adaptation process for each employee involved to understand and apply the method. Because this method allows users to change requirements, each member of the development team is required to be adaptive to the changes that will occur in the application development process. Related to this phenomenon, this study aims to measure the success of software development in companies that apply new methodologies to their software development projects. In this study, three factors were used – Organizational Factors, Process Factors, and Individual Factors – which based on previous studies have proven to be a measure of the success of software development. In this study, data analysis used the Partial Least Square (PLS) approach using Smart PLS software. Of the three factors used, the three factors influence the success of software development. Organizational Factors and Individual Factors have a significant positive effect on the success of software development, and Process Factors have a negative effect on the success of software development. The results of this study are expected to be used as evaluation material by paying attention to Process Factors that have a negative effect, and also to maintain and continue to improve Organizational Factors and Individual Factors which have been proven to have a significant positive influence
