The challenge

What a distressed
project looks like

The signs are recognisable — but the longer they go unaddressed, the harder recovery becomes.

Budget Exhausted

The contingency is gone and stakeholders are demanding answers. Spending is out of control, the reserve has been consumed, and no one can agree on where to cut without compromising delivery.

Timeline in Freefall

Milestones have been missed repeatedly. The delivery date is no longer credible. Dependencies are cascading, the team is demoralised, and every replanning exercise produces a number no one believes.

Scope Unravelling

The original goals have shifted, expanded, or begun to contradict each other. Requirements conflict across workstreams, stakeholders are misaligned, and no one is certain what "done" means anymore.
