Project Management Needs:
Projects are by definition temporary endeavors. Teams are disbanded when projects are finalized, and team members then return to their normal assignments in their functional organizations. Not all organizations can have dedicated staffs of project managers to execute their projects, and those that do often find imbalances between the projects they must execute and the availability of project managers.
72% of all IT projects executed in the US in the year 2000 were either late, over budget, or failed, and 23% (65,000 projects) of those projects had to be cancelled1. Not as much information is available on non IT projects, but it is fairly common to see late, over budget, or cancelled projects in many other areas.
