Projects from another perspective

“An estimated 68% of corporate IT projects are

neither on time nor budget, and they don’t deliver

the originally stated business goals. Some even

claim that during the last two years, $100 billion to

$150 billion of U.S. IT projects have failed

altogether.”

Mark Jeffery and Ingmar Leliveld: Best Practices in IT Portfolio Management,

MITSloan Management Review, Spring 2004

Typical questions when you starting the project

How to best use selected solution capabilities?

Do we have internal capabilities

do we start?

Who does what in this project?

How expensive will this project be? How

do we keep the costs low?

How to manage project and business

risks involved?

How do we assure success?

How to build internal

expertise?
