The authors sketch that IT projects still fail regardless of significant progress in the field of risk management. However, they argue that risk management in general and risk factors in particular is grounded in wrong assumptions: project managers cannot know in advance which risks will happen and what their probabilities are. Consequently, they suggest a holistic risk assessment approach combined to a contingency approach for managing the risk. They illustrate project improvements achieved aft...

Contemporary organisations use Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) to measure the effectiveness of their IT expenditures. Maximising this effectiveness requires spending less without impacting IT operations. The authors of this article argue that retaining service levels while reducing costs can be done in two ways: through centralisation and standardisation of IT. Yet, there are many caveats, which are also treated in this article.

Managerial practice often only scantily realises that applications result in high production and further development costs. Managers focus too much on initial development costs versus net benefits. In this study, the authors aim to provide an overview of costs over the application lifecycle; shed a light on available data with regards to costs; and stress the distribution of work over internal business and external consultants.

Various models exist that suggest how much effort should be put in a certain phase of a software development project. As these models vary greatly in these effort percentages, practitioners are confused and ignore the models. This study conjectures that models vary because they do not take into account factors that create variance. The authors subsequently perform empirical research in Chinese projects to identify these factors and provide some interesting results.
