CIS 500 Discussion

"Project Management and SDLC"  Please respond to the following:

The purpose of project management and the SDLC is to increase successful software implementation. The article titled “IT Project Failure Rates: Facts and Reasons” makes it clear that a lot of projects still fail.

• Identify an IT system development failure that occurred within the last 2 years. Do not repeat an example from earlier in the course or one that has been posted by another student.

• In your initial post this week, analyze which project management concepts were not respected by the project managers and where in the SDLC these lapses occurred.

• Describe how you might have spoken up had you been on the steering committee.
