Delay can lead to many negative effects such as project failure, disputes between stakeholders and also economic instability. Even though various studies have been considered in the causes and effects of delays in Nigeria, these studies seldom discuss how risk management could be integrated to lessen the delay in construction projects in Nigeria. Systematic risk management is expecting the unexpected; it is a tool which helps control risk in construction projects.

The aim of this dissertation is to discover if there is relationship between applying Lessons Learned (LL) and project success in the context of project management. In addition it will investigate the factors affecting the collection and dissemination of LL to determine what role these play in inhibiting the successful use of LL. This paper was built around Project managers (PMs) in Ireland. From this research recommendations are made to improve the use of LL and to avoid the barriers that impede the successful implementation of LL.

Quality means “conformance to requirements” The best testers can only catch defects that are contrary to specification. Testing does not make the software perfect. If an organization does not have good requirements engineering practices then it will be very hard to deliver software that fills the users’ needs, because the product team does not really know what those needs are.

Once the SRS has been approved, implementation begins. Programming teams have many options: The programmers can simply start building the code and create the objects and user interface elements. Designers can build a user interface prototype to demonstrate to the users, stakeholders and the rest of the team. Any code used to develop the prototype is typically thrown away once the design has been finalized. Pictures, flow charts, data flow diagrams, database design diagrams and other visual tools can be used to determine aspects of the design and architecture.

A review is any activity in which a work product is distributed to reviewers who examine it and give feedback. Reviews are useful not only for finding and eliminating defects, but also for gaining consensus among the project team, securing approval from stakeholders, and aiding in professional development for team members. Reviews help teams find defects soon after they are injected making them cost less to fix than they would cost if they were found in test. All work products in a software project should be either reviewed or tested.
