The Hidden Risks of Poor Quality Assurance
Why IT projects fail:
Many organisations embark on major IT projects only to encounter unexpected delays, rework, and costly overruns. The most common culprit? Quality assurance being treated as an afterthought rather than a critical part of the implementation process. When testing happens too late, issues remain undetected until they become major setbacks.
Common Pitfalls:
- Late-Stage Testing – Critical defects surface too late.
- Configuration Issues – Misaligned systems create setbacks.
- Security & Compliance Gaps – Leaving businesses vulnerable.
The Cost of Getting QA Wrong
Delays, Downtime & Budget Overruns
When quality assurance isn’t embedded throughout an IT project, businesses often find themselves playing catch-up—firefighting unexpected defects, reworking misconfigurations, and rushing to meet deadlines. This reactive approach not only increases costs but also reduces stakeholder confidence.
- Projects miss critical milestones, leading to frustrated stakeholders and budget overruns.
- Unchecked defects surface too late, causing rework and project scope creep.
- System instability results in downtime, compliance risks, and security vulnerabilities.
