Challenges and Best Practices of Managing Government Projects and Programs

Friday, 6 March at 12:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Standard Time (GMT -5).

Drawing on an impressive array of large-scale government projects gleaned from government audit reports across three major sectors—infrastructure and transportation, information systems, and defense—this study explains why government projects go wrong and what can be done to improve their success rates.

Challenges and Best Practices of Managing Government Projects and Programs provides a crucial foundation for practitioners, researchers, policymakers, as well as constituents to realize the benefits governments can bring to their people.
