IEEE (the definitions are) solely
based on estimation accuracy of
cost, time, and functionality.
AMB (independent study results) are
much more positive than what the
Standish Group claims.
IEEE Our research shows that the
Standish definitions (…) have 4
major problems: they’re
misleading, one-sided, pervert the
estimation practice, and result in
meaningless figures.
CHAOS‘15 (in 2015) another major
change is how we define success. Our
new Modern definition is OnTime,
OnBudget, with a satisfactory result.
