| W3.1.1. DIFFERENT APPROACH THAT WORKS |
|
Headlines |
|
| Need for a Radically Different Approach |
Summary |
|
| The harsh reality of business today is that: |
|
|
|
|
|
| * 70% of all I.T. projects fail totally |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * 70% of all corporations are dissatisfied with their I.T. investments and consider that they are not meeting their expectations |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * 90% of all I.T. projects fail to meet the requirements that were stipulated at the time the project was initiated and are therefore considered to have failed |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * As of 1995 out of an estimated 3 TRILLION US$ expended on I.T. 2 trillion was estimated not to have delivered a CENT of return |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * 70% of all "business process re-engineering" projects are considered to fail |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * 90% of all strategic planning exercises fail to make any lasting difference to corporate performance |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * Corporate collapse as a consequence of I.T. investment and strategic plan failure is becoming increasingly common |
|
|
| |
|
|
| * The dot com failures have seared investors in a painful and dramatic fashion |
|
|

|
|
| Clearly these statistics indicate that the currently accepted methods of doing things are highly sub-optimal and are statistically likely to give rise to failure. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| Need for a Radically Different Approach |
|
|
| Together these statistics indicate the need for a radically different approach. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| From his earliest days of involvement in the application of Information Technology in business dating back to 1982, Dr Robertson has adopted approaches which have gone against the tide of popular opinion. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| As a consequence, JAR&A are able to offer a different approach that works. This approach is founded on in-depth retrospective analysis of real life project failures over several decades. |

Deep Understanding of REAL Issues

|
|
| This has seen a progressively increasing understanding of the REAL ISSUES in Information Technology which has been the subject of a number of International Conference Presentations in the last decade and is now the subject of the eBook "Critical Factors for Information Technology Project Success" which is targeted for release late in 2002. |
|
|
| |
|
|
