CIOs and information technology leaders indicate that risks associated with artificial intelligence are currently outpacing the derived value within their organizations, according to a recent Gartner survey.
In complex ICT projects, an emerging problem often appears as a trend of deviations from the plan rather than a missed deadline. Shifts in key activities, higher person-day expenditure, unavailable resources and unmet prerequisites may signal the need to adjust the schedule. When several projects require the same specialists at the same time, project managers, technical leads and the relevant organisational managers work together to align priorities. New client requirements must also be evaluated before being accepted, as even a minor change can require additional effort or shift related activities. The impact on the technical solution, scope, costs, deadlines and quality is then considered, with the decision confirmed by the project sponsor. Completed implementation confirms that contractual project obligations have been fulfilled, but does not in itself reveal the benefit the solution has brought the customer. The business impact can be assessed after a period of use, through process efficiency, system availability or service quality. Veronika Petrović, Project Manager in Combis's Project Management Office, discusses early identification of deviations, resource coordination and tracking value after implementation with ICTbusiness Media – ICTbusiness.info.
