A Case Study and Tutorial in Using IT Knowledge Based Tools Part 2: A Tutorial ( Pages)
by E. Robins
May 31, 2001 Abstract : This tutorial, part 2 of a two part series on Knowledge Based Selection, demonstrates the selection processes and capabilities of Knowledge Based Selection Methods and Tools. These tools, integrated with business decision making procedures, can arguably reduce selection risk and improve chances for success in IT projects. Given the appalling rate of IT project failures, selection can potentially help reduce risk in some 30% of cases, with an associated estimated cost of about $30B annually to industry according to some sources. In this tutorial, we illustrate a number of the procedures for rapid decision processing through the real-life selection of a PDA device. The process gave confidence to the argument to wait for the solution, while weighing risk against return.

Generic GL-oriented accounting systems have not been designed with project phases, work breakdowns or detailed time capturing in mind, and thus they can merely report how much has been spent or collected, but not why a certain project is losing or winning money.
