Project Governance Survey Results
The results of the joint Caravel/Melbourne Business School survey into project governance in Australia have now been released. View our official press release here.
In a nutshell, project governance in Australia is broken.
The results found major project Governance Teams are often dysfunctional, lack the skills and experience to govern major projects, exhibit poor corporate behaviour, are conflict-ridden and rarely have their performance measured or reviewed.
The result is that the current project success rate is between 40 and 50%. This suggests that there is a significant level of lost value as a result of poor project governance.
If you would like more information on the findings or are looking to improve your governance delivery capability, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Additional information is also available on our website.
Survey participants have been provided with a summary of the results for their personal use and organisations are welcome to purchase the full analysis which will be available shortly. Please contact us for pricing and availability.
