摘要:The objectives of this study were to research into the interdependencies IT project control variables, andalso come out with frameworks to help IT project managers understand how to effectively control thesevariables to ensure the success of IT projects. The study employed six control variables: Cost, Time(Schedule), Scope, Quality, Risk, and Benefits. A qualitative approach was adopted, where selected ITprogram and project managers of the Telecom industry in Ghana were interviewed individually and in agroup based on a set of questions. The findings, espoused in the frameworks, reiterated the theory of thedependence of one control variable on the other, and the fact that varying one affects the others positivelyor negatively in relation to IT project success, as is the case for the iron triangle. Again, key activities ofthe control variables necessary to ensure IT project success were discovered..
