This research focuses on uncovering the important role played by soft factors such as culture and people in determining project success - on-time, on-budget, delivery of business benefits/value. Excellent discussion for the CIO who wants to go beyond processes and tools.
Do human factors play a role in project success? If so, what? This research's objective was to answer these questions. Towards that end, it explored:
- What is project control?
- How do we implement effective project control?
- What processes and tools help make project governance more effective?

An excellent discussion in ensuring project success.
