Your project is failing and you need support to get it back on track?

Then you are in the right place!

My name is John Payne and I have been successfully recovering IT-Projects since 2006.

I provide support for project sponsors, project managers, and project teams to recover as much as possible from a failing IT-Project.

9 steps for a successful IT-project recovery

Every project is unique. Every project recovery will also be unique to that project and that project team. That said, the project recovery processes remains the same.

These are the 9 steps for a successful IT-project recovery that I use:

  1. Recognize that the project is off plan
  2. Analyze the current situation and identify the main issues the project has
  3. Accept that continuing “as is” will not recover the project. One or more significant changes are necessary
  4. Define what the project recovery goal is
  5. Create a recovery plan with clearly defined deliverables, actions, and responsibilities
  6. Communicate and win support for the recovery plan
  7. Design a clear reporting which is understood by all the main stakeholders
  8. Start the recovery plan
  9. Closely track the effectiveness of the recovery plan and act quickly if further changes are necessary

I can help you with steps 2-9.
