A tactical approach for realists

Industry outlook…
After a steep fall in gold and silver prices in
2013, iron ore, coal, and copper followed
suit in 2014. Fundamentals such as growing
supply from new low-cost projects, a
stronger US dollar, weak global demand,
and credit restrictions in China have pushed
prices
of
these
commodities
into
a
“technical graveyard.” …

20% of technology projects fail outright,
40% of those that remain are “challenged”:
 Large technology projects are 10 times more
likely to fail outright…
 After project size, the most important success
factor is having a committed executive.
Between 70% to 80% of corporate business intelligence projects fail.

Getting it right
1. Technology
 Technology choice
 Proven products over tool-sets
 Integration – never simple
2. Uptake
 Senior Support
 End-user involvement
 Think big, test small, scale fast

OEM Report:
 Shows now – not historical information
 Reports on 1 piece of equipment
 No organisational, financial or
production context
 No benchmarking against budget,
forecast or best practice
