Abstract: The paper is focused on designing a decision framework which can assist project managers selecting an appropriate software development process for the project at hand. This decision framework should be based on the main element, on which the effectiveness of a process is dependent, i. e. the characteristics of software projects. This section explains the basic design of the decision framework, in which choices are made and what this entails for the matching of software processes with the characteristics of projects. From the previous software engineering models, information is gathered based on the characteristics of the software development processes which initiated four analysis on imminent characteristics of projects. By mapping the suitability of each process (based on their main characteristics) on the characteristics of projects, a basis for the framework is made. The mappings of the processes are conducted in section 1.2 and 1.3 of this work. Section 1.1 explains the basic design of the decision support framework. This work answers the research sub question: How this framework should be designed to be suitable for Project Manager
