Project is successful, if:Project is successful, if:
• Project’s result satisfy defined specification (function, quality, ...) – the result approved by the Project client
• Within defined time limit• Within the budget and defined
resources

Causes of Causes of Project Project Failure:Failure:
• Wrong definition of problem, definition of problem is constantly changing
• No one except the project team is interested in the end result
• Inappropriate structure of management• The project plan lacks structure• The project is underbudgeted• Insufficient resources are allocated

Causes of Causes of Project Project FailureFailure (2)(2)
• The project is not tracked against its plan• Lack of communication between team
members• Wrong style of project management • Improvisation, occasional/nonconsistent
interventions of a "strong personality“• Analytical phase was underestimated in
the planning phase
