In recent times, remote work has gained popularity as an acceptable substitute for working in a physical office, especially for IT professionals in software development companies. However, remote working presents significant challenges. Individual competencies and an enabling work environment, which includes a dependable internet connection, are essential. This research aims to analyse the influence of remote work on Scrum software development. The questionnaire survey mostly used pre-existing and tested measures. A total of 316 replies were received from those practising scrum. The data were analysed by SmartPLS version 3.0 and PLS-SEM study, which included conducting tests on both the inner and outer models. The structural model demonstrated a satisfactory fit, as shown by the standardised root mean square residual (SRMR) value of 0.073 and the normed fit index (NFI) value of 0.714.
