I believe that knowing what success will really look like can help the team stay focused and make important decisions throughout the life of the project.
So, in order to be successful, I guess bench-marking should be implemented as a structured, systematic process. What is your opinion? Saving Changes...
Delivery on time and within budget for PMI project manager is norm :).
This fact alone is not a mark for project success.
I would measure results in company before and after and make sure that there is improvement.
Benchmarking is for company management and this helps to justify investment. Saving Changes...

For me success is the stakeholders that are happy and sign off the project. I have said before that a project can effectively fail, as long as the stakeholders are happy and sign off.
If the stakeholders are happy then all is well.
Thanks Sante, for your response. Saving Changes...

Thanks for sharing your experience on this, Fernanda.
Totally agree with Fernanda. We actually had problems closing out projects because "done" wasn't clearly defined. In an effort to provide customer service we actually crossed over from project management to operations--great for operations but not so great for the PMO. Saving Changes...
