When was the last time you participated on a project? Did things go as smoothly as you would have liked? For most projects the answer is no. Why? Because project management, especially when implementing a new technology system, is a multifaceted, intricate and involved process that demands a well thought out plan for success.
The range of reasons why a project can fail are numerous –
- Difficulty gaining agreement and articulating system requirements
- Challenges resolving issues on a timely basis to keep the project on track
- Unclear roles and responsibilities of team members
- Team members losing commitment and focus for a project that drags on
- Important stakeholder groups not buying into the proposed change
- Loss of executive level support
- Endless delays in going live with the new system
- Bugs that never seem to go away
- Battles with the technology folks
- Excessive change orders with the vendor
