Large IT-implementing projects are complex and it is very difficult to control everything in detail. However, you need to reality checks of your solution at regular intervalls with real customer interactions.
Todays IT-landscapes are becoming more and more complex due to changes in organisations, business models, mergers & acquisitions etc.
