Independent Project Review

​

Typically, Independent Project Reviews are commissioned when projects are in trouble and need rescuing. This is a case of 'closing the gate after the horse has bolted'. In these circumstances an Independent Project Review becomes a post-mortem.

​

Rather, Independent Project Reviews should be commissioned at regular intervals throughout the project lifecycle.

​

Review is not Rear View. Review means taking a fresh look and is forward looking. The focus is on continuous improvement to maximize opportunities and manage risk.

​

To be truly independent and unbiased, an Independent Project Review should be conducted by a person or persons external to the Project Sponsor, Project Team, and Project Stakeholders. Otherwise, the findings will be biased by one or more of many biases including:

​

  • Confirmation bias

  • Recency bias

  • Anchoring

  • Egocentrism

  • Loss aversion

  • Sunk cost fallacy

  • Escalation of commitment

  • Controllability bias

  • Excessive optimism

  • Overconfidence bias

  • Regency bias

  • Groupthink
