Conclusions

In order to ensure system success, there are several factors to keep in mind:

1. Don?t cut corners, methodologically. In the long run, this results in system failure or an
inadequate system that doesn?t meet the users? needs.
2. Audit each major deliverable and step along the way for accuracy and correctness.
3. Carefully monitor top management support for the project. Make sure that managers are
aware of the progress of the team.
4. Secure the correct technical lead for the project.

There is no free lunch in software engineering. If you insist on keeping costs low and hurrying the
project along, then quality will be low or the risk of failure will be high no matter how well the project
is managed.

Botsareus:
You do realize that the only reason for you saying that is to give me a hard time right? That is the very reason I posted it.

vrukt:
Calm down Botsareus, you seem high-strung!

I was just reiterating the conclusion for reference and conversation purposes.

I was not trying to give you a hard time.
