The demand for software engineering support environment was evident since the 70s. It was necessary to control the integration be- tween processes, tools and developers in order to increase software qual- ity and productivity. Research projects produced several environments which introduced important concepts such as central artefact repository, well-defined and enactable software processes, as well as supporting tools. Later, agile methods emerged as a solution to overcome strict software processes, however it also demanded support tools to facilitate its adop- tion in software organizations. Several works report the use of agile prac- tices and support tools, however, they do not bring about the structure of a software engineering environment that integrates the managerial cycle and agile practices. This paper presents the design of a software engineer- ing environment which is based on Application Life Cycle (ALM) and SCRUM principles integrated with management and construction tools. The proposed design was validated with practitioners and a compari- son with previous development environment is also presented. This work contributes to support novel enterprises to set up a work environment for agile practices.
