Key Project Drivers
- Compatibility between different systems across
different generations
- Telecommunications technology
- Regulatory Environment and compliance with
recognised international standards
- Commercial strategy
- Balancing capacity and acceptable error rates
- Availability/Reliability
- Security

What Goes Wrong
- Software faults
- Security compromises
- Technology becomes obsolescent
- Unable to meet full capability on time, and
generally implement reduced capability and upgrade over a period of
time
- Poor focus on needs, and poor monitoring of
progress.
