There is no such thing as an IT project
There is no such thing as an IT project, it’s a business project that has an IT component
SYDNEY, 14 September, 2010: Brent Cahill, Process Mentor Product Manager, is quoted in The Project Manager – “Why IT projects fail”
August/September 2010 edition. Read about how benefits realisation is fundamental to increasing project success, whilst being cognisant of other projects likely to impact from a technical, shared resource or stakeholder perspective and understanding the risks in IT projects.
“If organisations do not have any formal or informal notion around benefits realisation [...] projects lose their way. This becomes more fundamental than scope”, explains Cahill. Stakeholder education and proper communication with executive management and stakeholders would put benefits realisation at the forefront of the project’s progress. Further, Cahill notes that PMOs should take on a knowledge management role by conducting a formal post-implementation review, documenting lessons learnt and creating a repeatable methodology.
Process Mentor provides Project Managers and PMOs with the tools and techniques required to conduct successful projects and deliver value from portfolios. Process Mentor sits across multiple toolsets from software development to project management. Across the complete lifecycle Process Mentor provides the control of industry standard Project Methodologies from Agile to Program Management.
