Editor's Notes
Data Point 1:
The Project Management Institute estimates that 70% of all projects fail – PMI estimates that 70% of all projects fail - costing the global economy $6.2 trillion every year. That is looking at project-based work only – which we know is only a PART of the work you are responsible for and that doesn’t include the costs associated with:
business disruption
lost opportunity
lost market share
or customer costs
Data Point 2:
Because of disconnected point solutions, knowledge workers today are completely dependent on email to coordinate, collaborate and report on work status. Using email in this manner consumes half of an enterprise workers day, and costs your company more than $19,000 per enterprise worker, per year.
($39,832 (avg. white collar salary) / 2080 (yearly work hours) * 4 hours (half day) *252 (avg work days) = $19,303)
No wonder why 66% of your knowledge workers don't have the time to get their work done, and 94% of them feel overwhelmed by information.
--- Additional Data Points ---
Project Failure
Poorly defined applications (miscommunication between business and IT) contribute to a 66% project failure rate, costing U.S. businesses at least $30 billion every year (Forrester Research)
60% – 80% of project failures can be attributed directly to poor requirements gathering, analysis, and management (Meta Group)
50% are rolled back out of production (Gartner)
40% of problems are found by end users (Gartner)
25% – 40% of all spending on projects is wasted as a result of re-work (Carnegie Mellon)
Up to 80% of budgets are consumed fixing self-inflicted problems (Dynamic Markets Limited 2007 Study)
Enterprise workers are drowning in information, only part of which is relevant or useful.
Information overload cost the U.S. economy almost $1 trillion in 2010.
28 billion hours is lost each year to information overload in the United States.
100 e-mail messages can occupy over half of an enterprise worker's day.
For every 100 people who are unnecessarily copied on an e-mail, eight hours are lost.
58 percent of government workers spend half the workday filing, deleting, or sorting information, at a cost of almost $31 billion dollars.
66 percent of knowledge workers don't have enough time to their work done.
94 percent felt overwhelmed by information to the point of incapacitation.
A Fortune 500 company estimates the yearly impact of $1 billion per year.

Have you ever panicked when you were asked for an update on a request that your team completely missed?
Or how about all the fire drills from the executives because they either can’t see what you’re working on, or you were working on the wrong things?
Or what happens when your customer is upset that you missed a deadline… they never come to you, they always escalate up!
Think about the finger pointing that occurs when either you miss work, or duplicate work.
What is it like managing the confusion and frustration in your teams because there is no visibility into what is being worked on?
So what is the solution?
What you need is a single system of engagement to manage every type of work your Enterprise IT teams perform – not the 5, 10 or even 20 point solutions you use today.
One that manages the entire work lifecycle – from request to completion.
A single system that provides you with the visibility that you just don’t have today.
You need:
Single system for end-to-end work lifecycle (work identification, work prioritization, planning, etc. etc.)
Single system that manages structured and unstructured work (defined work with defined flow along with ad-hoc work and variances)
Single tool to consolidate communication & collaboration features (social, documents, updates, notifications, approvals)
Single system that connects strategy and commitments to performance and accountability
Single system that scales, provides secure environment, etc…
The fundamental problem can’t be solved with one more point solution or a new project management tool. You need to start thinking about this in a new way—a BIGGER, more holistic way.
There is a better way… a single unified tool focused on helping enterprise teams manage the complexity of their work… That tool is Workfront…
Workfront provides the only Enterprise Work Management solution in the market that provides many different teams a single tool to help them better manage their work.
Workfront is the tool that unifies enterprise work

Unified work tools (goals and planning, social collaboration, document management, work flow management, work automation, process, reporting, approvals)
Closed-loop performance management (strategy, initiatives, commitments, priorities, outcomes, deliverables, results, impact, recognition)
Enterprise work best practices and maturity model guidance (change management, vision, transformation, resources / services, education)

"Each week, 40 percent of my time was spent chasing down how projects were going, what information does a manager need, contacting other teams globally on how things are going, and phone calls at night, sending a lot of emails. Now I can go into a project, open it up, see the notes in there, and send it off my manager, saying, 'Here it is.' Or he could even do it." --Kris Lamp, Senior Manager, Programs, Trek
"We have live updating of streams on all of our projects and we’re able to have a project manager in Rhode Island work with an account in Europe and have the designer in Asia working on a project and not have to wait days for responses on items. It’s all live data." --Kimberly Johnson, Workflow Platform Manager, Schneider Electric
