Project Remediation

There are many issues and situations that can necessitate the need for a project or systems remediation in an organisation. 

In our experience, issues can range from vendor and technical problems to misaligned strategic imperatives.

We all know that systems projects and projects in general can take time, require substantial financial investment, and consume peoples time and focus.

When done well systems and general projects have strong direction and execution and deliver the defined outcomes and business benefits. When not done well, they can run over time and budget and fail to deliver required outcomes, often resulting in disputes and legal claims.

Here are some common reasons for initiating a project or systems remediation and some of the issues to look for.

Vendor/Supplier Issue

  • Poor performance.

  • Scope disagreements.

  • Contractual disputes.

  • Inadequate resourcing.

Time and Cost

  • Budget exceeded

  • Uncontrolled expenses.

  • Costly and unexpected variations.

Technology Architectures

  • Functionality.

  • Performance.

  • Changing requirements.

  • Vulnerabilities.

  • Poorly defined systems architecture.

The specific remediation approach and scope will depend on the nature of the issue and its impact on the business. A successful systems remediation should result in a more stable, secure, efficient, and resilient system and effectively address the identified challenges and issues. A successful project remediation should result in resolved, outcome, cost, and quality issues.
