Project Rescue
According to the Standish Group CHAOS Report 31% of projects are cancelled before completion and 52% have cost overruns of 189%. It is not surprising, therefore, that companies frequently find themselves with a software project going off the rails, sometimes not even realizing it.
If you answer yes to any of these, your project may be slipping already:
- Is project release behind the schedule?
- Are you troubled by your project quality?
- Do you get frustrated by additional expenses that you haven’t planned?
- Are there serious communication problems between you and your development team?
- Do you seek an impartial opinion from a software guru?
