Strategic Business Initiatives Best Practices Business Project Prioritisation: An Art or a Science? by Peter Hind Feb 17, 2023 | 18 min

Executive Summary

At its CIO Edge events since 2019, ADAPT has surveyed delegates on what they see as the biggest impediments to the successful delivery of IT projects.

As the diagram below highlights, respondents have consistently advised that their biggest challenge has been conflicting business priorities.

Organisations are under increasing pressure to accelerate the digitalisation of their operations. Yet they find themselves in a war for the talent to do this work. In this case, how can they determine which initiatives to support?

Feedback received by ADAPT throughout 2022 highlighted that this problem was getting even harder. As a result, towards the end of 2022, ADAPT conducted a qualitative survey among 16 Australian and New Zealand IT Leaders to:

  1. Determine how big a problem project prioritisation is and if this has increased since the onset of COVID-19.
  2. Assess how IT executives engage their organisational stakeholders around project prioritisation.
  3. Highlight the approaches organisations are taking to the task of IT project prioritisation.
  4. Convey the recommendations of IT leaders on how best to address these challenges.
