August 4-7, 2011, Detroit, MI, USA
TRACK: IT Strategy and Management
MINITRACK: IT Project Management
MINITRACK DESCRIPTION
Unfortunately, information technology (IT) projects have become notorious
for high failure rates or having significant cost or budget overruns. Both
research and anecdotal evidence suggests that many IT projects struggle to
meet functionality and quality targets. Research has identified multiple
reasons for these challenges in IT projects, such as: project escalation,
poor risk management, failure to manage user expectations, poor software
development or project management processes, or inability to learn from past
mistakes and successes. As a research community, there is still much to be
learned and discussed about improving success rates for IT projects.
RESEARCH COVERAGE
The IT Project Management mini-track solicits research that focuses on many
traditional IS/IT project management areas, including, but not limited to:
• virtual project management
• agile project management
• learning from projects
• project management methodologies
• distributed project management
• project leadership

• project management standards
• best practices in project management
