A great challenge for researchers is to find out a software development methodology that can be adhered to the characteristics of software factories. In this sense, this work presents a hybrid methodology, called Agile Short Unified Process - ASUP. The proposal is based on elements extracted from the Scrum framework inserted in the four phases of the Unified Process - UP: Conception, Elaboration, Construction and Transition. We can find a life cycle represented and typified with all its elements in each stage. The ASUP was applied in four projects of two federal institutions of professional education (IFTM and IFNMG) in order to evaluate its efficiency. After applying this methodology, some notes were made by the teams as a form of feedback, and their final perceptions realized meaningful gains in project management activities. In the end, the methodology was approved and was no longer only a suggestive one, but being considered perfectly possible to be applied in other projects, in both institutions.

Keywords : Scrum; Unified Process; Hybrid Methodologies; Project Managing Activities.
