A number of studies by Gartner and other groups show how difficult it is to execute successful Projects in the real world.
There are a number of sophisticated Project Management software tools currently available. These applications let you
create projected timelines, do resource analysis, set up Predecessors and Dependencies, and other criteria.
However, they are expensive, often need manual updating, soak up a great deal of staff training time, may
require a dedicated and costly Project Manager, and in general are tools for PLANNING rather than PROJECT EXECUTION.
How effective are these software tools applied to day-to-day Projects performed in the real world? A number of studies
by Gartner ("IT Project Report Card", "PPM Inefficiencies") provide some startling statistics:
Project Management applications are used almost exclusively for Projects $1M or more in size, which are a very small minority. Almost
95% of all Projects that organizations manage are of a fairly small size -- under $500K in total expense.
The consequence: Larger Projects, given their substantial resources, tend to have a high success rate. In contrast,
KnowledgeDNA lets you overcome this disastrous failure rate.
We understand that Projects range from having a few, short-term action items to requiring dozens, hundreds, sometimes several
thousand tasks. Not only do we allow you to quickly build any size Project quickly on the web, or import it from Microsoft Project,
but we then allow your people to execute the Project on the fly from their own email environment.
The result: Real-time updates, an audit trail of all task activities, communications and documents, and on-demand business intelligence into large numbers
of Projects across the entire organization. That's KDNA!
