In order for a software development team to be successful, cost effective and perform effectively the team needs to coordinate and communicate sufficiently in order to compensate for the obstacles that a distributed team face. The focus of this report is to observe a distributed team as they try to overcome the obstacles that a distributed team face when it comes to coordination and collaboration. The team is being observed as they try to overcome those obstacles while working on a project for a client in another country. Methods, processes and tools are introduced in order for the team to become a self-organizing distributed team that works agile and effective. With the team being observed throughout the course of the project and the literature review on the subject, this report will analyze the team and the methods used in order to come to a conclusion on what enables a distributed team to become a self-organizing team that works agile and effective in a international market. There are obstacles that a distributed self-organizing team face. With efficient communication methods and tools for coordination the team can become a strong self-organizing team that works agile and productive.
