Abstract :
A case study of IT development projects was undertaken in a leading Canadian bank. Four concurrent and interdependent technology intensive development projects were examined over a 12-month period between 1995 and 1996. The insights from this qualitative study suggest that alternative approaches to organizing and delivering development projects in the IT domain may positively influence project outcomes
