Business Risks
A critical IT transformation program is out of control. What now?
ISSUES
Inconsistent project management practices, lack of clear drivers, and inadequate risk management leading to frequent project and budget overruns, and compromised deliverable quality.
Approach to solution
Conduct a comprehensive review of the current IT project delivery dimensions to identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and areas lacking accountability. Develop a recovery plan that includes the implementation of standardized methodologies to enhance project planning, execution, and monitoring.
The plan should also emphasize the importance of effective communication strategies, stakeholder engagement, and robust risk management practices. Introduce artifacts that support project management, collaboration, and quality assurance. Be sure that all the collateral aspects related to the project are taken into account, like impacts on business and proper change management
