| Justification |
A term used in some conventional approaches
to project management that is not recognised
in MFBP.
|
In many cases, the process of justification is
fundamentally flawed—in that it involves
fabrication of a list of beneficial results that
may emerge fortuitously from the project—but
that are not targeted as success criteria.
The problem arises from a confusion in much
of the literature between two related (but
distinct) expressions:
- a decision to proceed can (and must)
be justified
- a project itself can never (in any
meaningful way) be justified.
