Only 20% of SOA succeeding, but how to do it

Probably half of IT projects fail. This study shows 80% of SOA projects failing. But the article does give common threads among the initiatives that have succeeded. KPI's experience is that C-level buy-in and a cultural shift are necessary for any SOA initiative to succeed (and that often comes with a change of CTO or a visionary one already in place).

  1. Our SOA initiative is failing due to a failure to adapt to new methodologies. We need new leaders who will fully commit to SOA, not just do it because they read about it on CIO.
