PROJECT PERFORMANCE STUDY
TSIA Project Performance Study
2010 Study completed
and available for member purchase.
Study Overview
The TSIA Project Performance Study is a multi-member survey of technology professional services (PS) project performance. In addition to capturing three dozen project performance metrics across a broad range of PS businesses (see below), the Study also includes the collection and analysis of company and PS profile data, as well as project management practices. Participating member companies contribute data to the Study and share in the Study findings.
The result of the Study is a rich understanding of common project management practices together with an unprecedented compilation of hundreds of project performance data points from actual PS organizations. Respondent anonymity—individual and company—is maintained for all participants. The identity of participating companies is not published.
Study Scope
The specific items to be captured in the survey each year are determined by TSIA Research and the Study Steering Committee. The TSIA Project Performance Study typically includes coverage of, but is not limited to:
- Project Management/Metrics Policies and Practices
