Resumen
The growth of competitiveness between software development companies has brought greater pressure on increasing productivity, quickly adaptation to changes and ever faster deliveries of ever better and cheaper products. Based on this context agile methodologies have emerged, with the mainly focus related to adaptability with the purpose of delivering products with higher added value in the shortest time possible. In order to fill some management gaps still presented by the agile methodologies, there was an unfolding from Lean Philosophy, inside of the perspective of software development, the Lean Software Development (LSD). The LSD implementations are recent, and through surveys at various periodic intervals, it was possible to observe that little has been said about applications in software development companies inserted in different contexts. This study also concerned itself with the excesses produced in software development, above and beyond the needs or resources available. The literature has few references in this issue, being the subject important for new discussions. In the case of the Local Productive Arrangement (LPA) of Information Technology of the SouthWest of Paraná, there are research opportunities to be developed. Although agile methodologies are already inserted, there're still several gaps in its application and processes that aren't managed yet. Based on this conception of ideas, this work aims to raise the possibilities of insertion of these methodologies in the processes already worked in the LPA companies, analyzing as areas of processes that suffer excesses in the development as well as converging on the idea of improving the performance and production of the companies analyzed. For this purpose, a multiple case study was carried out, covering three software development companies. With the data collection during the research, there was an emerging growth of the agile methodologies in the sector. The three companies analyzed already seek to insert agile and / or Lean tools and methods in the process. However, this growth is still embryonic in its majority. Only one of the companies had contact with the Lean philosophy for software, while the other two introduced agile methods only a year ago, one with a well-formed team evolution and integration, the other with a little less consistency. It's interesting to note that excesses still occur even when the use of the Lean or Agile methodology is already inserted. It's possible to observe improvements but still gaps, in which the process can be more refined and the wastes less impacting or even none existent.
