Delivering succesful IT projects

If you are looking to IT to rapidly solve a pressing business issue, deliver cost savings and/or increase profitability, then this will undoubtedly involve pressure on IT to deliver a quality, on specification application, on time and on budget.

The Standish Group has found that, on average, 82% of all IT projects are delivered late and only 52% of the originally required features and functions make it into the final released application. It goes wrong when business sponsors and the IT team interpret differently written requirements and specifications – and the problems only become clear when testing begins on the production environment.

Project overrun typically reduces the amount of time given to employee training, furthermore the project overrun and therefore overspend eats into any application marketing budget resulting in a poorly launched and marketed application. The good news is that VeriSIM’s Application Lifecycle solution has been created to specifically address these issues.

The prototype element of the solution provides your company with a fully functioning simulation of the new application. This is key to cementing agreement between IT and business sponsors. It also allows the IT teams to accurately project total build cost and project length. For more information about application prototyping…
