The ParisByTrain.com project was a success in terms of project management because it brought together three critical perspectives and requirements:
- Customer:
- ParisByTrain.com fills a need for clear concise France train travel information, demanded by travelers and tourists.
- Business:
- ParisByTrain.com must support sufficient traffic and visibility to make it viable in terms of costs and return.
- Technology:
- With limited man-hour resources, ParisByTrain.com requires publishing technology with minimal cost of setup & maintenance, providing a sufficiently powerful platform to meet the needs of search engine visibility & traffic while presenting information in an accessible format to the customer.
If any one of these perspectives and requirements were left unmet, the project could have been a failure.
Luckily, all three viewpoints were kept in mind during the planning and implementation of Paris By Train, thus giving it a better than average chance of success. And the three viewpoints don’t necessarily have to come from three different people or groups, as in the case of ParisByTrain.com being a one-man show.
