This book is written for those managers, corporate planners, senior business system analysts, and information modelers who are looking for a new and productive approach to planning, controlling, organizing, directing, and coordinating their information Technology investments.
Object technology is now mainstream, offering at least the promise of a true discipline of software engineering. Nevertheless, many projects still fail, often catastrophically. To manage object technology well requires specific skills and techniques that many project managers and developers do not possess. This book is the solution. Drawing on his extraordinary experience consulting on object technology project management in 28 countries, Richard T. Due has brought together practical project management approaches and proven implementation guidelines that work. Mentoring Object Technology Projects identifies critical success factors in object project management, while introducing tools and techniques that can be applied immediately in real projects. Due demonstrates how to create accurate, realistic project estimates; build credible project schedules; and monitor projects effectively. He also objectively evaluates today's leading methodologies, including the Unified and OPEN approaches. The book includes detailed templates you can use to start managing object-oriented projects more effectively, starting today.
For every project manager, planners, senior business systems analyst, information modeler, and developer seeking more productive ways to manage object-oriented IT projects.

RICHARD T. DUÉ is the President of Thomsen Dué and Associates Limited, a training and consulting firm specializing in object technology. Richard develops and presents courses focused on object technology project management, object-oriented analysis and design, and object-oriented design patterns, and provides mentoring services to organizations migrating to object technology. He has more than 30 years of IT experience as a programmer, analyst, manager, consultant, teacher, and author, and is a frequent, highly rated speaker at conferences such as TOOLS and OOPSLA.
