Projects fail for two reasons. Poor scope( which leads to unmet expectations)or poor execution.

Projects also follow the ETVX model:

  • Initiation: gather participants and exchange viewpoints (WHY)
  • Planning: agree on what to do and how to do it (HOW)
  • Implementation: do it (WHAT)
  • Testing and evaluation. (WHEN)

Using the ETVX Model can be extended or simplified(depending on the perspective)to include the following:

  • (WHO) - equate to Contributors to the Project
  • (WHAT) - equate to Scope of the Project Proposal
  • (WHEN) - equate to Timeline Commitments during Assessment and Delivery
  • (WHERE) - may equate to the location of the PM Toolset or Development Location
  • (WHY) - equate to Objectives and Goals
  • (HOW) - equate to either Rule of Engagement or the Method of Delivery


Maybe we need to set up a W5H Project Management Philosophy since people understand the Who-How concepts.
