Critical success factors in project management. To fail or not to fail, that is the question! 项目管理的关键成功因素。失败还是不失败,这是个问题!
Abstract
Why do some project fail and some succeed? What went wrong? What are the key factors for the result of a project? These questions are asked by professionals dealing with projects thousands of times per year globally. To answer some of these questions research was carried out with a group of experts on factors influencing the project management process and identification of critical success factors.
Based on the research, out of the sixty one factors influencing project management process, fifty four were identified as significantly influencing the project management process. These factors were grouped, based on assumptions in the paper’s classifications as having: substantial, large, medium, small and negligible influences on the success of the project.
Based on the assumed factors classification the critical success factors were determined within a group of factors having substantial influence on the success of the project.
为什么有些项目失败了,有些项目成功了?出什么问题了?项目结果的关键因素是什么?这些问题是由每年在全球范围内数千次处理项目的专业人员提出的。为了回答其中的一些问题,与一组专家就影响项目管理过程的因素和确定关键成功因素进行了研究。
研究结果表明,在影响项目管理过程的61个因素中,有54个因素对项目管理过程有显著影响。根据文件分类中的假设,将这些因素归类为:对项目成功的重大、大、中、小和可忽略的影响。
在假设因素分类的基础上,在一组对项目成功有重大影响的因素中确定了关键成功因素。
Introduction
Every Project Manager would like to run a project that finishes with success but only the minority do in reality. According to Standish Group (2003) the majority of projects (67 % in 2002) run out of budget or time significantly. Why does it happen? What are the reasons that a project could fail? Are there any factors that could influence the project management process and as result lead to the project success or failure? To determine these factors a group of Project Managers was asked to review their realised projects and point out the factors that had influence on the project success and failure.
