Because of this projects often stay at the pre-implementation stage; of course, this may be because the initial idea wasn’t a good one in the first place, or that it has proved not to be feasible. Finding out that a proposal is impracticable or unworkable is actually a useful result of a project as it eliminates mistakes which could prove costly if implemented without experimentation. On the other hand it’s very wasteful to lose successful innovations through unsuccessful implementation. A lack of strategies for putting things into practice means we don’t know whether failure is due to implementing poor ideas or inability to implement good ideas
