Strategies for Heading Off is Project Failure

Cule, Paul, Schmidt, Roy, Lyytinen, Kalle, Keil, Mark·2000·Information Systems Management

Abstract

Although investment in information technology and information systems continues to increase, projects continue to fail. As a result, IS projects, particularly software projects, are perceived as high risk. By categorizing types of risk, this article helps IS professionals and all project sponsors to identify classes of risk and choose the appropriate managerial behavior to mitigate each of them.

  • Failure to achieve project goals is a result of the fact that project managers and project teams do not take the necessary measures to influence risks.

    “failure to achieve project goals is a result of the fact that project managers and project teams do not take the necessary measures to influence risks (Cule et al. 2000).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
