ABSTRACT:
A method and system for objectively determining potential success of a new project and similarity of the new project to historical projects. By defining a master set of processes, practices, and/or personnel available to be utilized by the new project, relationships may objectively be determined between the new and historical projects. Statistical information developed by the historical projects may be utilized to indicate potential success of the new project.
