Matthew Miller, from Loughborough University in the UK, seeks respondents to a questionnaire related to IT failures. He's currently working on his dissertation:

This dissertation aims to investigate the level of success within IT projects within the last 3 years. The results will then be analysed to find any common factors to success and failure, to see if some projects are destined to fail and to see if certain industries, type of projects or methodologies/models are more likely to fail. The final result will be statistically supported advice for IT project managers. This research is about both project success and failure. It is through understanding failure that we can begin to improve. As such, please do not view failure as a negative in this context and please include projects that have failed as these are very relevant to this study.

Please take a moment to answer his questionnaire, which will advance research in this important area:

Matthew will send the results to everyone taking the survey.
