  • Abstract
    This paper views the system life cycle from the perspective of information systems, the application of knowledge management and modern quality theory. It shows how to reduce cost and schedule overruns by means of explicit emphasis on configuration management within the cataract approach to build planning in an integrated management-technical environment can reduce cost and schedule overruns and minimise project failures.
