Challenges on the market:

Increasingly, portfolios of IT and business projects are becoming complex and interrelated. They often involve significant investment and high profile stakeholder attention. Boards are concerned by the prospect of major project failure, and are increasingly seeking an independent perspective on project risk.

In order to create effective and efficient business processes, organizations are increasingly engaging in large Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementations.

Inevitably these major changes are often followed with big issues (Inefficient coordination of management, staff and vendors; Unclear scope of implementation; Complexity and volume of data to be migrated; Insufficient security settings; Insufficient or informal testing...)

In turn these issues lead to increased risks (Projects missing deadlines; Negative influence on reputation and expenses; Employee resistance to new systems; Inadequate documentation and possibility of consequent follow up; System that does not meet the intended requirements, etc.)
