A situation in which two software development projects in separate contexts must both be delivered in order for either to be considered a success. When two systems each rely on information or functionality of the other - something we would generally try to avoid - naturally we see the projects that build them as interdependent. Yet there are also mutually dependent projects where system dependencies run only one direction. When the depended-on system has little value without the dependent system and the integration with that system
- perhaps because this is the only place it is used - then a failure to deliver the dependent system would be a failure of both projects.
