However, Project Oversight Requires More than Just Checklists, Defined Processes, and Standardized Templates To be effective Project Oversight must: § Identify not only the current risk areas but their future impact as well: § The quality of deliverables can be an early indicator of a lack of vendor skill sets and their ability to effectively perform in later phases of the project – e. g. , testing, data conversion, etc. § Assess the current impact and future risks to the project and the enterprise in terms of: § The percent of projects that effect one or more legacy systems and the complexity that entails in terms of support and operations. And the future migration actions (tools, staffing, other resources) that need to be put in place to address those issues. § The percent of projects that impact one or more business areas and their ability to support activities such as requirements development, testing, business process reengineering, and training. As well as the impact of projects on the activities of the business unit staff and their ability to perform their jobs. © 2009 Gartner, Inc. and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
