Thirty years after computers became mainstream it is nerving that software projects still come in over budget and late because of CIOs inability to manage to IT projects says Tod Nielsen, Borland’s CEO.
It is important to improve a CIOs ability to manage an IT project to try and combat the issue of projects going over budget and in some cases being many months late. CIOs are able to see dashboards that show the status of the company and how they are progressing. This dashboard covers all departments expect for IT departments. Instead IT departments simply use a traffic light system which is usually only measured by red and green. Whenever there is a problem the project goes into red on a graph which they measure progress. However, shouldn’t there be a stage in the middle? If there was a progressive sliding slop this would enable project to be managed more effectively and more importantly would help keep projects on time and to budget. If you need any help with managing projects efficiently why not give BACK a call. Our warm and friendly team can be with you from start to end.
