- Title
Key points of failure for IT project business cases.
- Authors
Iijima, Timothy
- Abstract
Large IT projects at companies generally underperform expectations-they either are delivered late, come in over budget, or fail to deliver their expected benefits. Studies reveal that there is no single driving factor for these failures, and no single 'magic bullet' solution. But are many projects doomed from the start to underperform expectations-because the expectations were inappropriately set? This article focuses on this key element-the setting of expectations in the form of a formal business case. The author discusses five key points of failure in IT business cases, why they occur, and how they can be avoided. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
