On the current gig (4 weeker) when I was here last (back in November) I put together a spreadsheet of deliverables and dependancies with estimates. It was very very detailed.
All you needed to do was turn it into a plan (or overall plan with drill downs). Would have taken a semi pro PM a couple of days. Would have taken me a morning
So I return here, and yesterday went through this list with the PM. Several of the items listed as dependancies have been forgotten about and the relevant teams not informed. This means we missed our slot and the project is going to miss it's April deadline.
The next available rollout slot is October.
Unforgivable or par for the course?
Even when you hand them a detailed breakdown of deliverables and dependancies they still **** up.
