This is a very good article (Lite relief for project delivery), but I believe that the author’s statement: “The fact that a project is well-managed and ticks the right boxes does not mean it will deliver a working system” is incorrect.

I think a project is well-managed when the scope verification is being done properly – and in absence of such verification nobody can guarantee a “working system”. The point to note is the definition of a “working system”. In my view, it is a system that conforms to the requirements of the work. In fact, this is what quality management is all about. If we do not do this, the project cannot be said to be well-managed.
