# Hybrid Project Assessment Template

## When to Use

- When reviewing a project that deliberately combines predictive and iterative delivery.
- When evidence is needed about handoffs, integration, and method-specific controls.

## When NOT to Use

- To score a purely Agile or purely traditional project with irrelevant hybrid criteria.
- Do not report sample values, unsupported ratings, or missing data as verified performance. See [Metric without source](../../../docs/principles/anti-patterns.md#metric-source).

## Pairs Well With

- [Agile Project Assessment Template](../../../domains/delivery/project-assessment-suite/agile-project-assessment-template.md).
- [Waterfall Project Assessment Template](../../../domains/stakeholder/project-assessment-suite/waterfall-project-assessment-template.md).

Selection context: Delivery domain; universal methodology; starter complexity. Match the situations above to project phase, risk, team size, and industry using the [decision-engine context model](../../../meta/architecture-research/800-801-context-assessment-model.md).

## Executive Summary
This template assesses projects using hybrid methodologies that combine traditional and agile approaches.

## Hybrid Methodology Assessment
**Project:** [Project name]
**Hybrid Approach:** [Combination description]
**Assessment Date:** [Date]
**Traditional Components:** [List]
**Agile Components:** [List]

## Hybrid Integration Assessment

### 1. Methodology Integration
**Integration Effectiveness:**
- [ ] Approach selection rationale
- [ ] Integration point management
- [ ] Process coordination
- [ ] Tool and system integration

**Integration Maturity:** [1-5 scale]

### 2. Governance Hybrid Model
**Governance Assessment:**
- [ ] Decision-making authority clarity
- [ ] Escalation process effectiveness
- [ ] Reporting and communication
- [ ] Risk and change management

### 3. Team Adaptation
**Team Effectiveness:**
- [ ] Multi-methodology competency
- [ ] Role clarity in hybrid context
- [ ] Communication across approaches
- [ ] Tool and process adaptation

### 4. Value Delivery
**Delivery Assessment:**
- [ ] Incremental value delivery
- [ ] Stakeholder satisfaction
- [ ] Quality maintenance
- [ ] Timeline adherence

## Hybrid Success Factors
**Critical Success Elements:**
- [ ] Clear methodology boundaries
- [ ] Effective integration processes
- [ ] Team capability and training
- [ ] Stakeholder understanding

## Optimization Recommendations
**Improvement Areas:**
1. [Integration improvements]
2. [Process optimizations]
3. [Team development needs]

## Assessment method and evidence

Tailor the criteria to the project before scoring. This is a lightweight internal assessment, not a certification or formal appraisal. Mark inapplicable criteria N/A with a rationale; distinguish missing evidence from poor performance.

Use a locally agreed scale: 1 = absent/ad hoc; 2 = inconsistently applied; 3 = defined and routinely applied; 4 = measured and controlled; 5 = improved using measured outcomes. Record evidence for each rating. Do not average scores with N/A or unassessed items.

| Criterion | Rating / N/A / not assessed | Dated evidence and rationale | Gap / impact | Action / owner / due date | Completion evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| [Criterion] | [Rating] | [Source and observation] | [Gap] | [Action / name / date] | [Observable acceptance condition] |

- **Assessment limitations:** [Sampling, unavailable information, assessor familiarity]
- **Stakeholder review:** [Reviewer / date / disputed findings]
- **Follow-up review:** [Date and accountable owner]
