“Madness is an expectation that if you carry on
doing the same things in the same way, you
can expect different results.”
Albert Einstein
Overview
This zone states that ‘Project controls’ are:
“the information gathering, analytics and management processes used to predict, understand and influence the time / cost outcomes of a project or program”
As the we accelerate into the 21st century is it right to still be focusing on predicting, understanding and trying to influence time and cost? Isn’t this yesterday thinking? Today seems to have a desire to deliver tomorrows benefit and desperately wants good value for money.
