Success and failure

• Just as we must define "success"

  • To assess the success of a project

• We must define "failure"

  • To determine whether a particular project

    • Is truly a failure

• Just to lump all projects together

  • And assess their variation from schedule or budget

    • With x% over as being a failure
    • Is an absurd proposition
