Big Problems
A study by KPMG of 300 large companies found that 65% reported that their projects were:
Grossly over budget
Far behind schedule
Technology was nonperforming
Perhaps more ominous, over half of the executives interviewed believed this state to be “normal.” They did not consider these numbers either surprising or particularly troubling.
