Why bad things happen to good IT projects If everything is going exactly to plan, something somewhere is going massively wrong. uk.freeserve.co.uk/page1.htm

Objective for INFS 6510 Preventative – Risk Analysis, Monitoring, and Control for Information Technology Projects – Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) Corrective – Rescue the Problem Project - Williams – Catastrophe Disentanglement – Bennantan – What to do when things go wrong (Train Wrecks) – Berken – Case Studies

Deliverables for INFS 6510 Individual Assignments – Weekly assignments over readings, podcasts, and lecture material Individual Discussion Board Postings Individual Risk Analysis Project – Risk analysis for a case study

Why Study Risk and IT? “What’s worse than having a pricey project collapse? Knowing it could have been prevented” Risk management key element of project management. July 2008, PMI launched the Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) SM credential. –

Why Study Risk and IT? Complexity Ambiguity/Intangible 90% Syndrome 44% Challenged (Late, Over Budget, And/Or Less than Promised Functionality) 24% Failed (Canceled or never used) software-going-downhill.php software-going-downhill.php

What is a deliverable The work breakdown structure The products or services a project delivers The project objective with budget tied to it The risk of a project reframed as an opportunity The milestones a project has to hit

Project Life Cycle Phases, according to PMBOK® Initiation Planning Executing Monitoring and Controlling Closing

Methodologies Product = Software / Technology Solution Waterfall vs Agile Waterfall – Plan and process oriented, linear Requirements -> Design -> Develop -> Test -> Deploy Agile – People oriented, collaborative, iterative Scope -> Requirements -> Risk -> Change -> Quality – Grady Booch AgileDimensions
