The rate of failure of IT projects has remained little changed in survey after survey over the past 15-20 yearsover 40-50%. This has happened in spite of new technology, innovative methods and tools, and different management methods. Why does this happen? Why cant the situation be better? One reason is that many think of each IT effort as unique. In reality many IT projects are very similar at a high, strategic level. Where they differ is in the people and exact eventsthe detail. If you read the literature or have been in information systems or IT for some time, you have seen the same reasons for failure and the same problems and issues recur again and again.
