Abstract :
The paper considers how customer/seller faulty communication causes many software development problems. At least part of this communications breakdown stems from customers´ lack of comprehension regarding their role in the development process. Developers must help customers realize that software development is an inherently complex and uncertain activity that can only succeed through close cooperation
