13. The functionality matrix Remember the wish list? Be clear about reality Vs insanity. Do you really need a Ferrari? Essential Vs desirable – think ROI/value. How good is today Vs what you NEED? Document it.
17. Avoiding the pitfalls More go wrong than right. Vendors will not be much help. Agencies will flip the process. Line Managers will flip the process. Your boss will flip the process. You will not be on the project in a year. If you inherit it go back to slide 1.
