Independent project management is paramount in achieving a successful implementation.
A Project Manager will:-
- help set and manage expectation
- understand business and technology
- resolve issues
and, most importantly, take responsibility for keeping a project on track in terms of budget, time and deliverables.
Running a major technology change programme without a Project Manager can have dire consequences as evidenced by the horrifying statistic that 60 – 80% IT projects fail to deliver their anticipated benefits, exceed budget or run late.
Excellent Project Managers are those who are able to clearly communicate on any level and are able to build and motivate strong teams as well as being logical, detailed and results driven. Real Project Managers are few and far between.
The really successful technology projects are those where an Independent Project Manager has been appointed at the start of the change cycle and has been an integral part of the decision making process.
Project Management is all about setting and managing reasonable expectation both for deliverables and for costs.
