The Failure of I.T. Project Management: Why It’s Broken And How to Fix It With 11 Ironclad Requirements You Have Never Heard Of A Delivery Guide for Tech Execs

By David Luria

Even executives at top tech companies fall prey to this implementation nightmare. Trying to bring your company out of the digital dark ages? Traumatized by past transformational projects that made your business less efficient? Looking for a user adoption strategy that doesn't sound draconian? Ask any CEO whether digital transformation is key for their company, and most will say it is a top priority. But when rolling out new technologies, implementation can often lead to a swarm of never-ending problems. Problems like missing data... drops in productivity... and all the technical glitches that come with moving from one system to another. Yet most of these complications involve a simple fix. Missing data can eventually be restored. Lower productivity goes away with enough monitoring and training. And software bugs are always bound to happen, even long after you've completed your transformation project. The real issue is that nobody uses the new state-of-the-art enterprise software you just spent millions of dollars on. In these sorts of situations, many enterprise project managers are quick to blame users for not being able to see the value of new technologies. But the actual reason users have difficulty switching over has little to do with their technological know-how. Getting people to switch from one platform to another is about having an effective onboarding process. That means considering factors like: How prepared are employees for change Whether you have enough support from key decision-makers The level of agreement between users and software teams This is where this book comes in... To give tech execs and project managers alike a straightforward guide on how to make your next enterprise implementation a successful one. So you can get your software to do what it was supposed to do all along -- help you grow your business. In this book, you'll discover: The secret ingredient to smooth software implementation that's missing from most people's definition of a "successful" project The "Ready, Willing, and Able" approach to onboarding employees to new I.T. systems The 4 "Marquee" transition requirement categories that help lead to better user adoption 11 essential requirements to include throughout your project planning One of the most overlooked causes of poor user adoption and engagement How to avoid messy mismatches between tech leads and end users to get the most out of any software How to use "fine-grain" budgeting to optimize your teams' allocation of resources And so much more! Implementing new enterprise systems doesn't have to be painful. Not if you use a people-centric approach to project planning that starts with what's in it for the user. That's what this book provides -- a straightforward model for making software transitions effortless by getting employees involved throughout the process. Because upgrading your enterprise systems should add to your bottom line, not subtract from it. But it's your call. You can let your tech teams try to figure things out without consulting other departments in your company... or you can help your company take advantage of all the benefits of your new tech solution.
