Why is the traditional project management approach less effective when project scope and technology are not well known?

Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).


Answer will vary

When working on projects in which the end product is not well defined, flexibility and the ability to manage changes as more information and learning takes place is critical. Traditional approaches to project management concentrate firmly on thorough planning up front. Project uncertainty varies according to the extent the project scope is known and stable and the technology to be used is known and proven. The higher the uncertainty the more appropriate agile project management.
