4.1: Large-Scale IT Projects

Effectively Managing Large-Scale IT Projects

Other Information:

The Federal government currently has over 7,000 ongoing IT projects, ranging from new citizen-facing services to systems that help government employees perform their jobs more effectively. Effective management of these investments is necessary to ensure that the projects develop the promised capabilities without exceeding estimated costs or going over deadline. The metrics here summarize more detailed agency-provided data available on the IT Dashboard, which provides a measure of how well agencies are doing in managing the largest investments so that citizens and managers know which investments are performing well and which need attention.
