  The link above should take you to TechRepublic’s “Top 5 reasons why Project Management fails in most of the company. It is an amazing list, of course with my view. Especially I like the point #3.

  Personally I’ve felt in many occasions, that a task is complicated unnecessarily to “fit the process” rather than “fitting the process to the task in hand”

  Many projects which are short-term or long-term in nature are to be handled, however the process that governs tend to be the same unfortunately! The output? Well you either tend to bend the process according to the long-term projects (usually, isn’t it?), which leads unnecessary overhead for the short-termed ones.

Think about managing a 3 week project with full scale project standard definitions, just like that! – Cause? –> It is the company policy to fit it to a framework.
