The application of standard project management techniques
to software projects has not achieved the success noted
in some other industries because typical software development
projects are fundamentally different from projects in
other industries. These differences make the management
of software projects more difficult than the management
of some other types of projects. Despite new project
management techniques and application methodologies,
IS still seems to be “blowing it” bigger
and better. Poor software project execution continues
to result, in the best cases, in missed deadlines, and,
in the worst cases, in escalations in commitment of
additional resources as a cure-all for runaway projects.
DSi’s organic approach, past performance, skills
and expertise, and management climate provides the framework
for beyond typical project management. DSi’s project
manager are trained to see the projects through clients’
eyes (ia) what the project means to client’s business
strategies, (b) how to prevent failure, and (c) create
a team culture that outperforms any effective team environments.
