What is the Project Management Reality?
• Roughly 40 percent of all IT projects fail to meet business requirements
• The average cancelled IT project – Scheduled to last 27 weeks and is cancelled on week 14
– at least $1 million wasted each year on work that does not lead to successful business outcomes
– The average organization annually ties up 10 percent of its IT staff on work that contributes no value to the business
– Project team members are aware of a project’s doom a full six weeks before it is finally cancelled by management, who failed to recognize it as quickly

Another View of Reality
• “…771 projects included in the fiscal 2004 budget – with a total cost of $20.9 billion – are currently at risk.” (OMB)
• Nearly 70 percent of projects fail (Standish);
• A staggering 39% of projects with budgets over $10 million failed. (Standish 2007)
• 50 percent are rolled back out of production (Gartner);
• 40 percent of problems are found by end users (Gartner);
• 25-40 percent of all spending on projects is wasted as a result of rework (Carnegie Mellon).

Success or Failure: What does it mean?
• Has the project satisfied the business requirements of the primary stakeholders?
• Were the deliverables produced on time and within the budget?
• Do the business owners believe the project was successful?
• Has the project delivered the business value promised?

Let’s Get Real !
• My company is small. We just do projects and have no need for Program Management and definitely not Portfolio Management.
• Choosing the right projects isn’t important?

Let’s Get Real !
• Our projects are very unique and we cannot plan for all the things that might occur. There is no way to create a process!
• Any methodology (process) can be at least loosely defined. Every process has different levels of control. Processes that are out of control have unpredictable results.

Let’s Get Real !
• We operate with a very lean staff. We do not have resources to do this stuff.
• If you are really strapped for resources wouldn’t it be better to assure you are doing the right things and that you are doing them correctly?
