LESSONS LEARNED
EACH EXPERIENCE BRINGS NEW LESSONS. IN CASE OF ORGANIZATION, SAVING ALL OF THEM ONLY IN EMPLOYEE MEMORY IS NOT ENOUGH TO WORK OUT BEST PRACTICES OR TO AVOID MISTAKES BY OTHER TEAM MEMBERS. ORGANIZATIONS OF ALL SIZES HAVE A HUGE AMOUNT OF KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE THAT IS NOT BEING FULLY UTILIZED. BY BUILDING, MAINTAINING AND USING A LESSONS LEARNED DATABASE, THIS INFORMATION CAN BE USED TO IMPROVE PROJECT PROCESSES. THIS WILL FINALLY LEAD TO THE CONSEQUENT FINANCIAL ADVANTAGE FOR RELATIVELY LITTLE EFFORT.
By using ISETIA not only unique experience but all experiences will be registered. ISETIA LESSONS LEARNED MODULE allows all knowledge gained by experience to be collected from a project that should be actively taken into account in future plans. As the purpose of lessons learned is to bring together any insights gained during a project life cycle that can be usefully applied on future projects.
There is no doubt about that documented lessons in a proper manner in ISETIA can help future projects to succeed. Use ISETIA as it guarantees:
EASY REGISTRATION of lessons learned item on the level of a specific project, program or portfolio, regarding on its nature.
DISCLOSE A CENTRAL REPOSITORY of on both positive and negative experiences. A lesson identifies a specific process, or decision that reduces or eliminates the potential failures or reinforces a positive result. ISETIA proposes a dozen of attributes, which describe a single repository item.
You can add your own attributes, if needed so. You can also assign lesson learned item to the project’s structure elements and lesson’s category as well.
AVOID FORGETTING THE CHALLENGES faced during the course of a project.
INVOLVEMENT of all project participants in the lessons learned process.
ACCESSIBILITY of lessons learned to other projects.
DISSEMINATION of lessons learned to the project management community.
