Common Project Problems

They don’t send me accurate data

Management isn’t clear about what they want

We can never find out when problems happen

They keep changing the standards

It is hard to get computer time when you need it

The salespeople wait until the last moment to send in the orders, then

they want it immediately

The customers don’t know what they want

There never is enough time

What to Do to Achieve Software Quality ?

Have a program in which you can involve all the personnel for defect

prevention

Ask them for solutions

Draw a road-map for implementing the solution

Meet again to know about the improvement and share the advantage

gained due to it
