Question

which of the software will be required for the situation where a software project has to be managed such that there is no delay

Answer 1

There are several reasons for it.

   Client change their requirements or want some additional features to be added with the same release.

   Developer found an issue and was so busy in resolving it which simply impacted the timelines.

   Timelines were just roughly set without considering any buffer and practical time required for each activity.

   Developers enjoyed the initial phase thinking they will shift gears at the end. It so happened that they could not shift to the highest gear all at once.

   Developer went in wrong direction with understanding of the requirement. By the time it was understood that this had transpired, already lot of time got consumed.

   At times, the unproductive meetings and documents are given far more weightage than the actual work. There is so much distraction besides that the developer is not able to spent quality time with the code which increases the timelines.
