Why professional IT project management is vital
25 Aug 2017
The rapid evolution of technology presents a constant challenge for modern organisations.
As the International Data Group’s (IDG) CIO platform notes, IT is “always moving, changing, adapting, and challenging business.” To harness this technology for growth, businesses require expert project management that is forward-thinking and strategically mapped.
Large-scale IT transitions require a dedicated leader who can adapt to change while maintaining strict control over budgets and infrastructure. Imagetext Integrated Solutions provides comprehensive project management, ensuring your business reaches its digital potential without the risks of downtime.
1. Common Reasons Why IT Projects Fail
Understanding the pitfalls of digital transformation is the first step toward preventing them. Most failures stem from three core areas:
- Insufficient Planning: Without clear intentions and measurable milestones, businesses often waste time repeating costly mistakes.
- Budgetary Mismanagement: Ineffective management can lead to “scope creep,” where costs surpass the original budget. Conversely, a poorly planned budget may place unnecessary constraints on project success.
- Misaligned Scope: Not every problem requires a complex overhaul. A professional manager determines whether a simple, short-term fix or a complex technological integration is the most appropriate solution.
2. The Imagetext Advantage: PRINCE2® Methodology
To ensure consistent results, Imagetext utilises the PRINCE2® (Projects IN Controlled Environments) management methodology. This internationally recognised framework is designed to ensure:
- Strict Timeframe Adherence: Delivering results on schedule.
- Risk Mitigation: Identifying and managing potential obstacles before they impact the project.
- Integrated Communication: Encouraging collaboration between managers and team members to drive efficiency.
Information technology is ”always moving, changing, adapting and challenging business.”
3. Expertise in a Cross-Platform World
Modern project management is more accessible than ever through mobile apps and communication software. However, the underlying complexity of IT infrastructure requires a leader with deep digital expertise.
