Rapid E-Business Development Project Management at Intel

摘要

The proliferation of e-business development projects in the past decades has facilitated the rapid expansion of e-business. However, the management of e-business development projects remains the major challenge for organizations. Studies find that problems with failure to meet requirements, cost overruns, and schedule delays remain common. Since the emergence of e-commerce, development paradigms have shifted toward a shortened development cycle. Project management strategies, process, and practices have changed to meet emerging needs.The goals of this study are to gain insights concerning the successful development of e-business systems with the development of the first extranet system at Intel Corp. as a case in point. Lessons learned and critical success factors are discussed.
