It shows how to integrate agile methodologies with project management to resolve these problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is aimed at managers, developers and customers who use industry standard methodologies, but whose projects still struggle to succeed. In 2000, only 28% of software projects succeeded outright. 23% were cancelled, and the remainders were substantially late and over budget. (In contrast, 94% of construction projects succeed.) No-one has yet found a satisfactory explanation for why so many software projects fail so badly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Stepanek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1590595505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781590595503\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.58h x 6.34w x 0.76d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2006 pg. 30","brand":"George Stepanek","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49148279062783,"sku":"9781590595503","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/software-project-secrets-george-stepanek-9781590595503","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
