When conducting a health-check or a lookback on a technology project, it's important to assess the Governance of the project. Governance is of paramount importance on a technology project. Governance brings structure, oversight, and discipline to technology projects, enabling successful project execution, mitigating risks, and ensuring alignment with organizational objectives. It promotes a culture of responsibility, collaboration, and transparency, enhancing the likelihood of project success and delivering the intended benefits. Without appropriate governance in place a technology project is virtually certain to fail or at the vey least not deliver the expected benefits. Here are some key governance questions to consider:
1. Project Initiation and Governance:
2. Decision-making and Accountability:
3. Risk Management and Mitigation:
4. Communication and Stakeholder Engagement:
5. Project Planning and Execution:
6. Vendor and Contract Management:
7. Change Management:
8. Lessons Learned and Knowledge Transfer:
By asking these Governance questions, you can gain insights into the project's governance and management aspects that contributed to its failure. This information can help in identifying areas for improvement and avoiding similar mistakes in future projects.
