The basic prerequisite for the success of a project is understanding particular marketplace and competition and defining specific objectives according to it. It is the same even in the cases where the "marketplace" means a small internal team or department.
2. Product development
New product, process or service should be created based on the defined objectives. It should be clearly documented right at the beginning of the project.
3. Marketing
You should be able to sell the project to end users whether they are customers on the global market or internal workers with typically human dismissive attitude to change.
