Due to the ever-changing needs of IT in today's businesses, agile software development has become popular due
to its adaptive capabilities. Startups are among those who continuously strive to meet changing needs. Despite the
potential benefits of Agile methodology, teamwork quality remains a challenge. Moreover, the global recession
has made it increasingly important for startups to have effective teamwork, given the high level of uncertainty that
leads to challenges in surviving, especially with cost-cutting efforts and downsizing. Therefore, this study aims to
evaluate teamwork quality in Indonesian startups using the Agile Teamwork Quality (aTWQ) approach. TWQ is
a comprehensive set of criteria designed to assess teamwork quality in agile environments. The primary objective
of this study is to identify the factors that most strongly increase the teamwork quality of Indonesian startups. To
accomplish this objective, data will be gathered from Indonesian companies using an online survey based on the
aTWQ framework. The challenges were identified most on the cohesion, balance of contribution, and effort
dimensions. The findings of this study are consistent with previous research, which hopefully may assist startups
in Indonesia to enhance their teamwork quality and achieve greater success in their respective industries.
