Poor Statistics on Successful Projects Failed systems projects cost more than $100 billion per year - Computerworld One out of every two projects overruns its budget by 180% or more - Computerworld Survey of 300 large companies 65% reported projects were grossly over budget, behind schedule and technology nonperforming - KPMG 65% of companies have lost control of at least one major project - Forrester Research 31% of 8,380 projects cancelled - while only 16% were on schedule and on budget - Standish Group Breakthrough Technology Series Bob Fannin Global Project Management 2004 by GPM

An Innovative Project Cost Time A General Definition: Quality a significant endeavor, usually mission critical unique and unclear as to outcome limited skilled resources with extraordinary and dynamic constraints in time, cost and quality to bring about a beneficial change which may not be able to be expressed clearly
Innovation Projects are Different from Traditional Projects 1. Rapid Technological Changes 2. Unclear Scope Objectives 3. Rapid Changes in the Market 4. Scarce Resource Constraints 5. Unsure of Time Estimates 6. Greater Need for Creativity 7. Knowledge Intensive
New Approach for Innovation Projects 1. The Need for Portfolio Management Techniques 2. Being Scope Change Friendly 3. Planning Done on a Shorter Time Frame 4. The Need for Managing Knowledge 5. Planning for Rapid d Deliverables 6. Working with Scarce Resources 7. Fully Engaging Team Creativity 8. Deploying Highly Talented People

Traditional Project Investment Profile Return on Investment POI Breakeven Point Successful Project Implementation Failed Implementation Delayed Implementation Point of Diminishing Returns Time to Market POI = Point of Implementation
IPM Intensive Project Investment Profile Return on Investment IPM 1 IPM 2 IPM 3 Traditional Project Implementation Plan POI for 1 POI for 2 POI for 3 POI = Point of Implementation Return on investment Added return due to Intensive project Return from Traditional project Time to Market
