About this Presentation
This presentation shows how to simplify complexity in one example; how to explore the potential of this process; etc. An information technology (IT) project is used. The project is out of control; where do we cut; what do we cut; etc. Four dilemmas were identified: pooling similar requirements; fight redundancies; quality of requirements and internal development versus not internal development. The fourth dilemma (internal development) was put in a current reality tree (CRT). The CRT was based on the evaporating cloud (EC) turned 90 degrees with assumptions added. In order to insure that the development team is working at full capacity we applied critical chain project management. This decision-making process of using the EC (CRT) and FRT for preparing and substantiating decisions was quite effective.
