All entries are ANONYMOUS, your personal data will not be recorded and no one will not be able to identify you.

Main Objectives of the Study:
In this research, we will investigate the actual picture of the IT Project Management field in the world. From past data, we know that less than 60% of the IT projects are completed with success (on budget and on time). Through this study, we hope to understand better the behavior of project management practices and identify the factors that can contribute to the success of a project.

Your contribution is crucial to the success and quality of this work. This survey is divided in 4 sections and it will take between 10 to 15 minutes to complete everything. This survey will be available until May 31, 2017. We expect to publish the results until the end of June. We appreciate your cooperation and we commit to sending the executive summary of the research results at the end of this study if it is of your interest. We will put a link for a separate form at the end of this study to ensure your anonymity.

It is important to remember that the purpose of this study is not to misrepresent or criticize your work or your company, but only to get to know the best practices and to develop new ones based on the research results aligned with the literature review.

Your participation is voluntary and will not result in any penalties. You can find more information at https://goo.gl/iF7dF8.
