Identifying and Tackling the True Barriers to Success - Implementing Projectwise Lifecycle Server in ConocoPhillips Alaska

Traditionally, successfully implementing software projects requires consideration of the technology, process and people impacts of the project. To implement an engineering data warehouse such as Projectwise Lifecycle Server, the major barriers to be overcome no longer include technology. A new project approach is needed where the technology is used as a tool to help address the real barrier to success. This presentation focuses on how the implementation of Projectwise Lifecycle Server in ConocoPhillips Alaska is addressing these barriers such as creating a detailed and consistent information specification, addressing data lifecycle issues, and changing existing business processes.
