Project Management Critical Success Factors
By The Office of Government Commerce - OGC, UK
Successful projects have:
- a well-defined scope and agreed understanding of intended outcome
- active management of risks, issues and timely decision-making supported by clear and short lines of reporting
- ongoing commitment and support from senior management
- a senior individual with personal accountability and overall responsibility for the successful outcome of the project
- an appropriately trained and experienced project team and in particular a project manager whose capabilities match the complexity of the project
- defined and visibly managed processes that are appropriate or the scale and complexity of the project.
For cross-cutting projects, there may be nominated senior owners from each organisation involved in the project and its delivery. Where this is the case, there must be a single owner who is responsible for the whole project.

Excellent list! And it confirms my own experiences. Readers also might be interested in my somewhat tongue-in-cheek: “Ten Guaranteed Ways to Screw Up Any Project.”
