Introduction to Project Management: Maximising the Success of Your IT Projects

IT projects are now commonplace, but the reality is still stark: only 16% of these projects are delivered on time and on budget.

This statistic, although distressing, underlines the crucial importance of rigorous management and cutting-edge expertise in the IT field.

Faced with this reality, companies are faced with a dilemma: on the one hand, the imperative need to deploy new online applications quickly, and on the other, the challenge of guaranteeing the success of these initiatives while respecting time and budget constraints.
