Preparing a Scrum training for Managers in the Public Sector can be an inspiration for a post. Digging through research I found an article<\/a> with the nice title:””Double Whammy: How ICT Projects are Fooled by Randomness and Screwed by Political Intent”” by Alexander Budzier and Bent Flyvbjerg. The study analyzed 1471 large-scale global IT projects costing more than $170m. The findings where one in six big IT projects go over-budget by an average of 200%. An average IT project has a budget overrun of 27% and a schedule overrun of 55 %. In an interview<\/a> for the BBC Bent Flyvbjerg stated “”People always thought that the public sector was doing worse in IT than private companies – our findings suggest they’re just as bad.””<\/p>

I presented this finding as that public sector was doing as good as private companies :-). Only the public sector gets more public attention on failing IT projects. For example in May 2012 the Dutch Parliament will start a public inquiry in Public IT projects. The public attention and the inquiry will be good impulse to look for better alternatives to do IT Projects.<\/p>

In the Netherlands is following alternative in the US and UK. After a report by the Court for Audit (Rekenkamer) the central government created the CIO role on department level and big governmental agencies. Next tollgate reviews are organized for big IT projects.<\/p>

The Office of Cabinet (UK) is taking the next step. In November they stated the aim of using agile techniques in 50 % of ICT programme by 2013. In the Government ICT Strategy – Strategic Implementation Plan 2011 they stated by 2014, Agile will reduce the average departmental ICT enabled change delivery timescales by 20%. Great future for Agile Overheid (Agile Public Administration).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
