Project Recovery: Case Studies and Techniques for Overcoming Project Failure; Copyright; Contents; Preface; Chapter 1: Understanding Success and Failure; 1.0 Introduction; 1.1 Success: Historical Perspective; 1.2 Early Modifications to Triple Constraints; 1.3 Primary and Secondary Constraints; 1.4 Prioritization of Constraints; 1.5 From Triple Constraints to Competing Constraints; 1.6 Future Definitions of Project Success; 1.7 Different Definitions of Project Success; 1.8 Understanding Project Failure; 1.9 Degrees of Project Failure; 1.10 Other Categories of Project Failure

Best practices for picking up the pieces when projects fail There are plenty of books available offering best practices that help you keep your projects on track, but offer guidance on what to do when the worst has already happened. Some studies show that more than half of all large-scale project fail either fail completely, or at least miss targeted budget and scheduling goals. These failures cost organizations time, money, and labor. Project Recovery offers wise guidance and real-world best practices for saving failed projects and recovering as much value as possible from the wreckage. Sinc
